Maritime Brass Locking Night Watchman Timepiece
Early 20th century A.D.Sold for (Inc. bp): £72
A Burk's Fabrikat Amerikaner circular drum-shaped timepiece with the paper recording disc present internally, with stamp inset with key post, spring fingers and detector spring; without keys. 855 grams total, 11.5 cm wide
Acquired Stacey's Auctions, Rayleigh, Essex, UK. Property of a Essex gentleman.
Each waypoint of the night watchman's round had a key hung there with a different number; as the watchman reached that location on the ship he would insert the key and turn it and that would make a time and location stamp on the paper disk showing exactly what time he had checked that site. The clock cases were locked so the instrument could not be tampered with while in use. -
