7002

Also known as the Spherical Weight clock. The clock has no mainspring, no key and no winder!

It works solely on gravity with the balls slowly moving down the large “paddlewheel” so providing the force for the clock. The speed of the movement is controlled through an 11 jewelled platform escapement (supplied fully assembled) to enable accurate timekeeping.

The balls fall from the paddlewheel onto the base — 1 every 4 hours and when several have collected they can be replaced on the top rack to give virtual perpetual motion. The clock comes with 24 balls, plus our most comprehensive instructions.

Base: solid mahogany. An optional glass case is available.
