Alan,
The gimbaled marine chronometers (especially the Hamilton 21 & 22) are quite collectable by traditional navigators and clock collectors. A time piece to show off proudly on any coffee table. Not a time piece to be using aboard a small craft or from the sea shore unless you have very deep pockets.
