Description
Made by Waltham Precision Instrument Company, part number 40091, the A-13A-1 was used in a number of different aircraft during the 1960’s and 1970’s, including bomber B-52 Stratofortress, fighters F-100 Super Sabre and F-86 Sabrejet, and the trainer T-33.
With one-hour elapsed time feature and sweep hand. The start, stop and flyback of second and minute hands does not disturb time of day. The lever for adjusting rate is accessible without removing the clock movement from its case. Clocks contain an unbreakable, anti-magnetic cobalt alloy mainspring and an anti-magnetic temperature compensated hairspring to ensure accuracy. Mechanical clocks are stand-alone, time keeping instruments which are not affected by environmental extremes or system failure.
Made of brass and steel, this Waltham A-13 Cockpit Clock is in EXCELLENT used condition. It does have some marks, scratches, and wear. It is 100% functional and NO broken parts…HOWEVER…when the second hand is engaged with the pusher, it wants to stop after 30 seconds or so. This indicates it needs a bit of a cleaning. It should be an easy fix. The data plate is missing, however the manufacture and model info is stamped into the dial. I have shown its location in the last images. Would make an EXCELLENT addition to any collection or display!
