Also known as the Inclined Plane clock, this clock is placed at the top of the sloping base and takes a week to travel down — its position on the slope indicating the day of the week.
The dial remains upright telling the hours and minutes as in a normal clock. There is no mainspring, no key and no winder — the clock relying solely on the pull of gravity working against the movement train inside the drum.
The clock is made of stainless steel and heavily gilded brass. Base: mahogany.
