5 3/8 wide on face, edge to edge. It has been kept in very nice condition. Face shows no issues. Sides have a couple of spots here and there. See all the pictures for more details. The clock runs and chimes, but the chimes do not correspond to time. Clock should be attached to a wall for the chimes to work properly. Could be just a matter of leaving it on the wall for a day or two, and everything might work properly. Could be serviced by a clock repair person. Any questions, please ask.

The winding at the 8 is bound up but the 4 works. The Clock and Bells do work when it’s wound. With the number 4 side of the clock. Do not know about the accuracy of the clock. Clock face measures 3 1/2″ inner, outer bezel measures 5 1/4″. Please check over all the pictures, Thanks.

Has some minor rust? On face front rim. Some discoloration on front rim. There are minute scratches on the surfaces of the metal parts. Back has discoloration where key had been taped on duh! There is a small scratch (approx 1/8) on the glass by 4 o’clock (based on my eyesight). The clock runs and chimes, but the chimes do not correspond to time. It should be serviced by someone who knows what they’re doing. I did not want to “overwind” or try and “fix” it. I know my limitations! Any questions, please ask.

Front case easily screws on and off. Slight wear and edge dings to the case. No attempt made to clean or disturb the patina. Tested over 40 hour period, no time lost. Please view all of the images, as they are part of this description. Wound and started Wednesday April 30, 10:43pm, checked periodically, last checked on Friday May 2 4:08pm. Still right on time to the minute. 40+ hour test run looks good. Then listed for sale. All chimes work, 1 bell, 2 bells, and so on all the way to 8 bells at the top and bottom of the hour. Bells set an hour earlier than standard / […]

The clock has some scratches on its face that can be seen in the pictures. It has a great patina and has not been cleaned. I was able to get this clock running and it has ran nonstop for the past 24 hours. Not sure how well it holds time. The bell tries to work, and makes a noise perhaps it needs some cleaning and love, not sure. Comes with the key.

Great find from estate of Yachtsman and nautical enthusiast. Vintage Seth Thomas Corsair Clock and Barometer Set. Original lacquer and patina. Never scrubbed or polished. No signs of damage, repair or abuse. Clock has German movement. It works well and sounds wonderful. Not tinney or harsh. Barometer works great too! I’ve enjoyed having them but it’s time to pass them along. Hope you get them!

With its historical significance and craftsmanship, this clock would make a valuable addition to any collection of maritime antiques. Clock measures 5-1/4″ in diameter with a 4″ diameter dial. Heavy brass construction and in good working order. Includes the winding key as shown.
