Waterbury Clock Co. “Ship’s Bell No. 10”, ca. 1915.  The ship’s wheel is 8 inches in diameter, the silvered dial is 4 inches across and has some light wear.  The catalog description says the dial is porcelain, but all the examples online have silvered dials.  The glass is beveled and convex; the minute hand has been repaired.  The brass case is tarnished and scratched in front.  I think the walnut base is hand-made, as the catalog illustration does not show a base for this model. The jeweled lever movement is running and the strike sets on the hour and half hour but does not strike.  This model typically sells around $100.  $50-$100.
