Question
I am looking to replace the glass on a Porthole quartz ship's clock mabe by Bell Clock company. Am unable to fined a website or company that will provide me the information and part.  Suggestions Please.

Thank You

Answer
I'm sure you won't find a replacement that is made specifically for your clock. However, you should be able to get a piece of glass to fit it. If it's just a round flat glass you need to measure the diameter and you can purchase it.
If the glass is convex I should be able to provide you with one. If the glass is beveled you will have to get a glass cutter to custom make it.
Let me know the specifics on the glass and I'll help you further.
