  • This is a beautiful device, and a nicely put together video. What I find delightful is that the ball actually serves a function in the time-keeping and isn't just "for show."

  • its very beautiful

  • BRITISH MUSEUM!

  • Fascinating!

  • @apillow123 probably not but your 2 year old stealing the marble might cause soe trouble

  • I am a professer i make these clocks and sell them for antique items around $130 to the lowest to $587 at the most and this is a nicely designed clock and you should keep it dont ever try to sell it because 20 to 30 year from now it could cost bit money around $30,000 .

  • so is this clock ever wrong or is it only effected by earthquakes. lol

  • very nice

    

  • has the ball ever fallen off?

  • @jsDominos

    i think the ball does not have enough mass/energy to hit the lever and change te angle of the plate .it would have to lift its one weight. so i think there is a spring somewhere.

  • where i can pay this ?

  • Nice sistem!
