    calling all 36C

    Chelsea or Weems & Plath?

    Hi Mark, Two years ago I bought a Chelsea Ship Strike clock at WM. It sopped running after 6 months. WM would do nothing to help me. In Fact they said I probably over wound it and it was my fault! I called Chelsea direct and they repaired the clock at no charge. I got it back in about 10...
