ELGIN type 43F-1 grade 562 A-11, original U.S. Army AirForce clock, golden-plated movement, in original anti-magnetic bakelite case manufactured by the JAEGER.

This is a highly collectible and historically significant World War II aviation cockpit clock. This exact model was a crucial piece of equipment installed on the instrument panels of iconic American wartime aircraft, including heavy bombers.

Features the legendary Elgin grade 562 8-day mechanical movement with 8 jewels and a central sweep-second hand. The mechanism beautifully retains its original gold-gilt / gold-plated finishing on the plates and bridges, designed by wartime specifications to prevent corrosion at high altitudes.

Fully functional & keeping accurate time. The movement winds up smoothly, runs for the full 8-day cycle, and ticks strong. Original "sterile" military dial with crisp Arabic numerals and the proper "8 days" text. No commercial branding on the front, exactly as required by wartime government specs. Housed in its authentic, original anti-magnetic bakelite case manufactured by the Jaeger Watch Co. (New York, USA).

Used by the USAAF for the B-17 Flying Fortress, B-24 Liberator, B-29 Superfortress, P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, C-47 Skytrain and many other USAAF aircrafts.

You're bidding on a excellent clock (which has also passed through an additional control inspection at the 2026), which is guaranteed to be fully functional, historical WWII military item. Serial # B-3407 (movement # 41458493)
