From WW2 a German cockpit clock/Blindflieguhr Bo UK 3 made by J. Schenkler-Grusen Swenningen a.N.
dial black red with illuminated numbers and range.
Glass edge with second-scale and start marking can swivel.
Diameter 80 mm.
The timepiece is good and runs great.
This model was often in the posterior part of a bigger airplane at the radio operator/rear-gunner. (see Photo 19)
But they were also at the pilot in the cockpit for night flights (hence the name "Blindflieguhr").

General info:
Bezeichnung: Blindfluguhr
Anforderungszeichen: Fl.23888
Baumuster: Bo-UK3
Messbereich:8 Tage- Laufwerk
Hersteller: dnt = Schlenker-Grusen, Schwenningen/ Neckar
Baujahr: ca. 1935.
Because the timepiece has a very low work number, 377, it is probably a very early made implementation usually the numbers are in the thousands or tens of thousands, early ones are rare because most have not survived the war.
The later versions had a greater chance of survival because the war has lasted relatively shorter for these.
This makes it special and thus rare!
