A stunning, modern version of the table clock “The Navigator” (RGD) by Comitti London, combining a rose gold-plated movement with a base made of glossy lacquered burr walnut. A limited edition of only 100 pieces worldwide.
The impressive Comitti”Navigator” clock is closely based on the first reliable marine chronometer developed by the world-famous clockmaker John Harrison (1693-1776). Harrison’s famous “grasshopper” escapement enabled seafarers to calculate longitude for the first time and thus determine their position on the map more precisely.
This new table clock “The Navigator” (RGD) from Comitti London is handcrafted from solid brass and plated with rose gold. The silver-plated dial features Roman and Arabic numerals and is complemented by elegant Breguet hands. Above the dial is a pretty seconds display with hands. The movement stands on a polished burr walnut base with an integrated key drawer and is protected by a shiny crystal glass shade. Each Navigator clock comes with a piece of the book “Longitude” by Dava Sobel, which tells the amazing story of John Harrison’s struggle to create his amazing clock.
