This masterpiece of horology was created in the middle of the 19th Century and has more features than even the most over-the-top Casio watch of today. This clock features 70 dials showing 122 different indications and is made up of over 30,000 separate components. Considering it’s age and the technology available at the time this clock is a true masterpiece.
