Just added this to the collection WW2 Australian Navy Sestrel Deck Clock

Just got this off Ebay. A WW2 Sestrel Deck clock from the HMAS Australia a cruiser that saw a lot of action and survived WW2.




A little info of the ship.

Hope I did OK on this. But the date of the clock and Setrel did sale stuff to the royal navy I think it's legit. Was reading about this this ship during a kamikaze attack the captain was killed. Being from his cabin really makes you think about the sacrifices the greatest generation did. My dad was lucky to have survived a Kamikaze attack on the USS Bunker Hill he escaped the fire by jumping onto a catwalk along the flight deck.

Fastest shipping I ever had from eBay ordered it on Wednesday and got it of Friday from England to Montana like 2-day shipping.
Had it for a few days keeps great time.


Had a mark I never seen before on the case an anchor mark next to 1942.

Here are some shots of the movement. Has a cover over the regulator never seen that on another Elliott clock movement.
