Offered by Over The Blue Horizon is a superbly crafted reproduction WWII Imperial Japanese Navy aircraft clock obtained a few years ago at the famous Nakata Shoten Military Equipment Store in Ueno, Tokyo, Japan. For those not familiar with Nakata Shoten, it is Japans premier military equipment establishment and was originally established in the immediate post-war years as a military surplus store. Over the decades, it has evolved into much, much more the owner accumulated an incredible collection of original military equipment and uniforms, and now in addition to surplus, also sells the highest quality reproduction items ranging from Nambu machine guns to WWII Japanese uniforms to military timepieces like this aircraft clock. This reproduction WWII Imperial Japanese Navy aircraft clock is copied from an original in Mr. Nakatas personal collection that was manufactured by Seikosha (now Seiko), and it was designed to be mounted in an aircraft instrument panel for Imperial Japanese Navy Air Force aircraft such as the Mitsubishi A6M Zero.

As the war progressed, these clocks were also used in Army Air Force aircraft. This clock features an aluminum casing painted in matte black. The clock face is also black, and the numbers and hands are whitish green and chemically illuminated, and a smaller circle measuring seconds is in the lower 6 oclock position (but does not function). The large knurled knob mounted in the upper 12 oclock position is used to set the time and wind the clock (it is mechanical) and the clock's case includes a four-hole flange through which screws were normally inserted to fasten it to the aircraft instrument panel. Overall, it is approximately 2.35 inches across, 3 inches top to bottom, and 1 inch in depth and as can be seen from the scans, it comes in a nice presentation box.

Again, this is a reproduction item that is externally identical to those used during World War II, and you can rest assured that the people at Nakata Shoten have done everything in their power to make this the BEST reproduction in the world. Nakata was never happy with the mechanical movement of these clocks but.

Having said that and although it keeps time, we recommend you not use this as your primary time reference!
