HAMILTON NAVY CHRONOMETER Originally by DarkShip for SH4 v1.2

Now converted and Revised for SH4 v1.5

-----------------------------------------------------------

Because of the changes in the way the chrono works in v1.5 I kept the original hands and relocated the minute track hand.

Note:The minute track hand should be running on half the scale it is currently running on. If anyone know how to change the rate of the hand please let me know.

All versions of the original have been included.

CAUTION: Menu_1024_768.ini FILE MOD
This Mod Changes the Menu_ini file that is common the most of the larger mod packages.

Happy Hunting

Edit: This Chrono is Full Size...
I thinned down the Hour Hand

Thanks for the great mod! I was born a block from the Hamilton watch company so I really like having this watch in the game.

My uncle worked at Hamilton for his entire career, so I asked him what Hamilton did during WW2. He said they made timed artillery fuses, gimbaled naval chronometers, a really nice pocket watch used by navigators in B17's, and wrist watches for GI's. My uncle made artillery fuses before joining the air force in WW2.

Unfortunately the watch company closed sometime ago. It's now an apartment building for the most part (there's a private school in part of the building).

Only $300?

Quote:

Price = $2395

(And it looks like it's sold already)

The reproduction box, on the other hand, is only $300. For just the box.

I read like hell...

But have just discovered the error myself. Went there to buy it after some thoughts - too good to be true. And so it was indeed...

But still a piece of art!

I'll leave it as is - just for the pics. And sorry, can't find the mod anywhere.
