NOS Chelsea Concord clock

Just picked this up. I am still trying to figure out the specs.

It's a discontinued Concord model 8 1/2 inch clock. Very heavy.

From a website:

"The Concord is an updated version of one of our earlier classic mechanical clocks. We combined, high performance, time-only movement dating back to WWII with beautifully crafted brass and wooden base to produce this elegant timepiece."

I'm interested in knowing more about the movement etc.

Very nice clock, truly NOS.....it probably has a Chelsea 12E 11 jewel movement. I have a US Military clock from 1963 with this time only movement, mine has sweep seconds hand. Mine came out of a nuclear missile silo in Caribou, ME which was decommissioned in 1994, a Cold War relic.

I contacted Chelsea and confirmed that this Concord has a 12E movement, which was the same military movement. My clock was delivered to the dealer in 2010, so sat around awhile. The last Concord was sold in 2018. It wasn't a popular clock and they estimated about 25 were sold. As much as I like hearing a ship's bells and the idea of one, I couldn't have one in my home. I am surprised this time only clock didn't sell more. I am quite happy to have found it.
