I don't have info how old it is, A fellow treasure hunter asked me if I could sell it for him, he said they found it while digging. I'll attach a picture of the back

Not really. A professional clock rebuilder may still want that so he can fix it again.

OK, so this is where experience ( lots of failures) comes in.  First, that is a marine or ships clock.  Finding a ships clock on land in a possible dig is a big marker.  If the glass was smashed and the hands broken off that would mean the site of a ritual suicide of a Jap officer as the spirit guardian on a deposit.  Even though it is not a Jap clock that does not mean it is not a Jap marker.  Pls give details how and approximate where it was found.

It has some value as a clock but not a lot, I would be interested in it because it was once used as a code marker, maybe used.

Send me a PM.
