Naval Clock Identification

Came across this forum whilst researching a clock that has come into my possession (I repair and restore clocks). Almost definitely not a U boat clock, but hoping someone can help me identify.

Don't think I am able to upload photos, unless someone can give me a normal email address to send to in which case I will add photos as attachments.

Clock has silver dial 8" diameter, black lettering with Nautische Werkstatten Kreuziger & Leutert Hamburg on it. There are no other naval markings on it. It is a timepiece with separate second hand. It has a substantial circular brass movement about 4" diameter with 'platform' escapement. On the back of the movement are letters TB & S with a running deer above - this I have found on the internet is TOBIAS BAUERLE & SOHN.

Previous owner has put it in a home made oak mantle case.

If anyone can help identifying it or give me an idea of value, would much appreciate it!
