History More than One Hundred Years of Wempe Chronometerwerke, Hamburg. Not only the gateway to the world, but Also the gateway to trailblazing horological craftsmanship. Chronometry in imperial Germany acquired international importance much later than it did in England or France. German chronometry was particularly crucial in Hamburg for two reasons: firstly, because Bremen and Hamburg were becoming increasingly important commercial centers; secondly, because Hanseatic ship-owners wanted to become independent of foreign (and especially English) chronometer suppliers. A number of leading German...

Drum barographs are essential for anyone who wants to keep an exact record of changes in air pressure. Our drum barographs are made of high-quality materials and are individually assembled by hand. Eight aneroid capsules are the centrepiece of each drum barograph. They measure the exact air pressure, which is recorded on the diagram paper by means of a precision mechanism and a writing arm. The paper drum itself is battery-powered. All our drum barographs come with 52 sheets of diagram paper for a full year and a felt-tip pen. Please indicate in your order if you would like to have the diagram...

Master clocks precise and reliable on all the world’s oceans Providing a uniform time aboard a vessel, WEMPE MASTER CLOCKS have been a precise and reliable companion for sailors on all the world’s oceans since the 1970s. The master clock or main clock as it is also called is the most important component of a time system besides the slave or secondary clocks that are installed throughout the vessel. The master clock controls the slave clocks by transmitting control pulses or signals so that all connected slave clocks always show the same time. Contrary to time systems used in a building or at...
