A ship's deck chronometer is a great gift, both classic and rich. Accurate chronometers were crucial to navigation in the late 18th century. Longitude was determined by establishing local time. Many chronometers were set in beautiful wooden boxes and gimbaled so that they moved with the sway of the ship. A worthy and timely accessory to the executive workspace.
