    Found this interesting clock , no one my circle has ever seen it before , thought maybe the vast knowledge of the HAMB could tell what it came from.

    NO actual knowledge, but case design kind of reminds me of a Taylor compass. Try searching Taylor and clock on Google images.
    I think I would run off the road while trying to figure out the new configuration of time!

    Any more pictures? Any markings or date stamp on the housing? I presume the joy stick is for changing the time. Maybe we can match the design on the bezel.

  7. Looks like a marine application to me.... I can see this sticking out of the top of the control panel next to a compass.

    Kinda matches a 58 Edsel speedometer. But I bet it's for a boat.
