Developed for the Hamilton Model 21 but can be used for any standard size chronometer Elgin, Mercer, Ulysse Nardin, etc. These containers were in turn surrounded by padding with a cardboard box that had a large sticker reading “Handle with Care, Delicate Instrument”. The container was sunk into shredded paper for additional padding. The lid is very tight fitting to keep moisture out. First 3 pictures are of actual aluminum container as found after many years of serviceuse. The last picture is of another one from my collection after I cleaned it up and shows what these look like cleaned and polished. A partial sticker on side of container added during Korean War era shows how to pack chronometer within. Good investment in protecting your chronometer and enhancing its resale value!
