Does anyone know if there were any carriage clocks that had fusee chains? I ask because I am looking for something larger that a fusee pocket watch chain, but smaller than a standard marine chronometer chain.

I reckon we are talking about .60mm (.0235 inch) and about 18 inches in length. I have an early, small, Arnold & Dent chronometer which is missing many parts but is of historical interest. I am trying to get it a bit more up together than it is. It's quite small with a 3.25inch dial.
