There is an article in the NY Times today (Page B38 in my edition) about Seth Atwood and the (now defunct) Time Museum. According to the article, Mr. Atwood is "…now going back to Sotheby's. He is selling an additional 218 pieces from his collection on Wednesday, in an auction titled 'Masterpieces From the Time Museum, Part II.' "

 

The collection is on Sotheby's web site but doesn't appear to have any dials or non-mechanized astronomical instruments.

 

BTW if you haven't seen one of the books published by the Time Museum, "Time Measuring Instruments, Astrolabes, Astrolabe Related Instruments" by A.J. Turner, it's a real treat.
