Ship's Bell Key in Brass

Like all mechanical clocks, the Ship's Bell requires regular winding to keep time. This brass nautical bell clock key is a direct replacement for the original key that comes with every Ship's Bell chronometer. It's handcrafted from the same solid brass as the clock case with a polished finish to help resist tarnishing. Simply insert the clock key into each keyhole and wind it fully. Our blog has more information on the winding process. Order these Ship's Bell clock keys if your original is missing or you bought a used clock that didn't include a key. We can use our manufacturing logbook to confirm whether the timepiece you're shipping for is a genuine Ship's Bell. Since the design has not changed since it was patented in 1900, our replacement key will fit every Ship's Bell available whether it's the 4.5-inch, 6-inch or 8.5-inch size. We also offer a Ship's Bell clock winding key with a nickel finish (item #91272) if you have a nickel-plated timepiece.
