WW1 Scapa Flow ship clocks, particularly from the sunken German High Seas Fleet (scuttled June 21, 1919), are very rare, sought-after maritime antiques often featuring brass casings, bevelled glass, and makers like F.N. Tietz Kiel. Many were salvaged during the 1920s /30s and represent the dramatic end of the war when the German ships were sunk. Authentic clocks feature markings from the German Imperial Navy (Kaiserliche Marine). Salvaged items often show signs of being underwater for years, but our example was recovered from a partially submerged vessel and has no sea water damage. Some artifacts from Scapa Flow are displayed at the Scapa Flow Museum at Lyness on the island of Hoy.

This Clock is from one of the German Battle Fleet Ships scuttled in Scapa Flow in June 1919. Unfortunately the ship's name is not known. It was removed from a ship that still had its superstructure above water so thankfully no saltwater damage. It was retrieved by an employee of Cox & Danks who were responsible for raising the ships from Scapa Flow. There is lots of Historical information on the Scuttling and Raising of these ships online. The clock is in good working order”. The price for this very rare fully functional Scapa Flow recovered ships clock with provenance includes UK delivery. Sn 23307 £2,975.00 |
