From Arnold & Son
This collection of three pieces comprises the latest addition to Arnold & Son's Instrument Collection.
The dial of each watch has been writ large with an image from London's National Maritime Museum. The paintings represent different events in the history of the HMS Terror and HMS Erebus. These vessels were sacrifice to John Franklin's ill fated search for the North-West Passage.
The dials are of mother-of-pearl featuring an off-set hour and minute "inner dial" at 9 o'clock.
The main of the dial is dedicated to a true beat seconds function.
The case is rose gold and measures 44 mm in diameter. Limited to 28 sets.
