Clocks- 2 (Two) Coast Guard Marine Clocks: (1) Seth Thomas Clock Co., Thomaston, Conn., marine clock, 8 day, time only, twin spring driven balance wheel movement in a brass case with hinged bezel, 6 inch silvered dial reading "U.S. Life-Saving Service", subsidiary seconds and blued steel spade hands. (2) Waltham Clock Co., Waltham, MA, "Deck Clock No. 1", 8 day, time only, spring-driven balance wheel movement in a brass case with screw-on bezel, 6 inch black dial with white numerals, subsidiary seconds dial, and blued steel hands. (1) The U.S. Life-saving Service was a government agency dedicated to saving the lives of shipwrecked mariners. It was merged with the Revenue Cutter Service in 1915 to form the U.S. Coast Guard. The clock is somewhat greasy, but this has probably protected it over the years. The silvered dial is a a bit dirty, but in generally good condition. The movement ticks. (2) Clock is missing glass. Case has scratches and lacquer that has started to degrade. Seconds bit is missing and hands have been bent a bit out of shape. Clock ticks. The clock originally was issued to the U.S. Navy as that name is also on the dial, but was engraved over.
