Thank you for the fascinating look at a fairly modern ship's chronometer and a good example of using old technology in the modern era when it does the job well.
The importance of a clock in maritime operations is to determine longitude (latitude can easily be determined by means of a sextant). The development of maritime clocks is beautifully written in the book “Longitude” by Dava Sobel.
I see some mainsprings with an extra piece attached to it at the beginning of the spring. Is that a way to make the extra S in old mainsprings? Or has it another function?
Wonderful collection of specimens. I enjoy your history lessons very much .
Beautiful piece of engineering and execution.
