The Thomas Mercer Marine Chronometer dated 27th April 1981 is a brass timepiece that comes with an inter box containing the chronometer and parts and an outer box with the original leather strap. Crafted by the renowned maker Thomas Mercer Limited, this original chronometer was made in the United Kingdom. This piece offers a glimpse into maritime history and navigation from over four decades ago. A valuable collector's item for those interested in marine antiques and British naval heritage. My father was a Chief Engineer in the Merchant Navy serving abroad many vessels in his 39 years service, this item was found in the cupboard when clearing my late father’s property. As you can see it’s a unique piece in extremely good condition given its age.
