Uhrenfotos - Dauerthread

Thx. I like it's simplicity. And the precision of the movement. It is an AS 1130. The watch has, at least 60 years. It has not been serviced in last 10 years, while it is in my possession. Probably more. It keeps time within +-10 seconds a day. The AS 1130 is not the most beautiful movement out there, but it certainly does the job.

Thx, it is nicely preserved and looks good. It used to work until a year ago. I should have it repaired but it is waiting for its turn since I have 6 watches in my drawer waiting to be repaired.

However, I am not sure that it was intended for flying. According to Konrad Knirim's book on British military timepeaces (page 758) it used to be attached to a military radio device. So, it could be from an airplane, but does not have to be.

It does look fantastic indeed!

It is a decoration on my table. Does not work properly. Needs service.

Dear Edmar,

But the clock looks very fine. It should fly again! Wherever you are: Support your local biplane pilot - he will be very glad to use a clock fitting to his aircraft.

Best regards from Germany

Hallo,

Solch eine Uhr benötige ich zur Zeit für den Einbau in mein Flugzeug. Steht sie zu Verkauf?
