: Clock sets, winds, and runs to about 30-45 sec/day accuracy but
: chrono is frozen and does NOT work. I bought this as a
: fixer-upper but never got around to servicing and mounting it
: for desk use. This model would be electrically illuminated in
: red, but I have not hooked it up to electrical to test the
: illumination. No information on the type(s) of aircraft this
: model was used in, though some casual research suggested these
: were often used helicopters.

:
: The winder knob at 8 o'clock has had a "bite" ground out
: of it, perhaps a modification to create a notch for easier grip
: when pulling to set or as an expedient repair to allow a shorter
: screw to be used to attach the knob. Glass crystal has proper
: dual-coat AR coating intact.
