75 years ago Captain
Philip Van Horn Weems (USNR) founded this company with a single purpose in mind:
to improve sea, air and space navigation methods and safety. The "Grand ole Man
of Navigation" committed much of his life to simplifying techniques, and
inventing and adapting new, accurate and time-saving inventions. The precise
measurement of time has been central to the progress of navigation throughout
navigation history. In 1937, Captain Weems invented the Second Setting Watch to
help aviators plot their courses more accurately. To commemorate the 75 years of
rich heritage of Weems & Plath ® that is closely linked to this man who strove
to perfect the field of navigation, we are pleased to introduce our elegant
Anniversary Collection of ship's clocks and barometers.
To stay true to the high standard set by Captain Weems the quality and
workmanship of these fine ship's instruments are unsurpassed. Each piece in this
series is created from solid, forged brass that is hand polished and lacquered.
The collection includes the finest German movements, dials, hands and components
available in the world. The distinctive dial of each instrument is intricately
etched to create a subtle but rich pattern.
Each instrument is labeled with a unique serial number and is provided with
complete instructions, mounting hardware, and a fresh battery as required. All
instruments carry a limited lifetime warranty.
