De Havilland wooden Gipsy III Propeller and clock
An original two-bladed wooden propeller from a De Havilland wooden Gipsy III engine, retro fitted with a 1940s military timepiece antique clock.
The Propeller
The Gipsy III was used on light sports aircraft from the 1930s. The base of the hub is mounted with a brass plate stamped ‘DRG No. DH5212/D/5 DH Gipsy III L.H. and D6′-2″ P5′-5″ Aug/30 ACG No 19135’.
The blades are brass edged on the leading side for protection. The laminated wood has been polished, and the propeller blades remains in very good original condition.
The Clock
The 1940s Chelsea Clock Co. U.S. military bulkhead antique clock is set in a bakelite case with hinged screw-down bezel. The 8-day movement has a platform escapement. A regulation lever extends through the dial above the subsidiary seconds dial. The original silvered dial is signed MARK I DECK CLOCK, U.S. NAVY, 42714, 1943
It has matching black steel hands. The movement has been overhauled and is guaranteed for 3 years.
