Commissioned by the British government, the carpenter John Harrison developed a precision instrument for the accurate determination of longitude at sea, the first marine chronometer in the 18th century.

These high-precision chronometers, gimbal mounted in wooden boxes, were mainly built for the Navy in Hamburg, Kiel and Glashütte. They were used on many marine vessels until the invention of the quartz movement and are highly collectable items today.

As a tribute to the craft and to be able to enjoy looking at this classic design on the wrist, STEINHART has developed the series "Marine Chronometer white roman ".

Powered by a Swiss pocket watch movement ETA/Unitas 6498, mounted in a brushed stainless steel case, you can admire the simple beauty of this instrument under the domed sapphire crystal at any time now.

Attention: There are only few pieces available with the movement ETA/Unitas 6498.
