TIME AND WEATHER STATION MAKES A BOLD STATEMENT

Navigator II

 

Jan 9, 2018

Wempe Instruments’ Navigator II combined clock and weather forecasting station is a bold statement in marine design. From distributor GlobalTec Solutions, this precision timepiece, thermometer, hygrometer and double aneroid barometer is an ideal addition to any boat or home interior. It also makes a thoughtful, well-appreciated gift.

A modern classic, the matte black bezels and housings create a striking counterpoint between the deep ebony face of the instruments and the subtle glossiness of the black or optional carbon fiber-coated 11.8″ x 5.9″ mounting board. They’re each secured with four hex bolts, lending to the Navigator II’s rugged, nautical character.

The quartz clock’s white, photoluminescent hands sweep across indexes and roman numerals for effortlessness viewing in any light level. The second hand is tipped in red for a distinctive appearance. Battery powered, it’s supremely accurate to DIN 8325 standards.

Precision arrows indicate the exact temperature and humidity. A bold pointer marks the current atmospheric pressure reading and the fine, manual hand is easily adjusted using the knurled center knob.

Behind the instrument’s handsome good looks is over 110 years of German craftsmanship. WempeChronometerwerke produces the finest, most accurate timepieces and weather gauges available.

Wempe Instruments’ Navigator II sells for $1,860.

Baltimore, Maryland- and Portsmouth, UK-based GlobalTec Solutions is an international distributor of quality marine products. It provides sail and powerboat owners a central equipment source, and operates an extensive network of sales partners and service engineers.
