THE SHIPS BELL STRIKE SEQUENCE IS AS FOLLOWS INCLUDING A BRIEF HISTORY. Mariners have used a unique bell code to tell time at sea for hundreds of years. The code is based on the crew's typical workday routine while the vessel is under way. The day is therefore divided into six four-hour periods, each called a watch.

Similarly, the crew is segmented into three divisions. To rotate each division's watch times, the Evening Watch is periodically divided into two watches. These are called Dog Watches because they "dog" the watch schedule for all divisions ahead by one watch period. A single bell denoted the end of the first half hour and one bell was added each half-hour. Eight bells therefore signaled the end of each four-hour watch. Like centuries of seafarers, you'll soon know the time when the clock chimes, even if you cannot see it.

Merchant vessels over 100 gross tons have, by law, divided the crew into three watches, working four hours on and eight hours off, and turning the dog watches into one evening watch. THE ONLY WAY TO ASSURE YOURSELF OF GETTING A FULLY OPERATIONAL CLOCK IS A COMPLETE DIS ASSEMBLY AND INSPECTION OF ALL COMPONENTS. I HAVE THOROUGHLY AND METICULOUSLY INSPECTED ALL ASPECTS AND FACTORY SPECIFICATIONS OF THIS CHELSEA SHIPS BELL CLOCK! THE AMERICAN MADE EIGHT DAY BRASS RACK AND SNAIL SHIPS BELL STRIKE MOVEMENT HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY INSPECTED AND CLEANED WITH ULTRASONICS AND RE-LUBRICATED.

BOTH THE TIME AND STRIKE MAINSPRINGS WERE UNLOADED, PROPERLY CLEANED AND INSPECTED, LUBRICATED, AND RELOADED INTO THE MAINSPRING BARRELS. MAINSPRINGS ARE A CRITICAL COMPONENT THAT TRANSMIT POWER TO THE ENTIRE GEAR TRAIN, PROPER MAINTENANCE WILL ASSURE EXTENDED AND RELIABLE LONG TERM PERFORMANCE. ALL OPERATIONAL ASPECTS WERE INSPECTED AND CORRECTED AS REQUIRED, ENSURING THAT THE MOVEMENT IS READY FOR MANY YEARS OF RELIABLE OPERATION. THE MOVEMENT WAS THEN PROPERLY REASSEMBLED, LUBRICATED AND ADJUSTED. I TAKE GREAT PRIDE MAKING SURE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF MY CLOCKS IS METICULOUSLY RESTORED, HOWEVER.
