Auto-winded. Movement with one-minut-remontoir. 1,98 x 0,55 x 0,40 mtr. The movement is a special edition of a Ungerer or Schwilgue from Strasbourg, ca. 1890 and has a so called 'remontoir'. The escapement is driven by a spring, that is winded every minute by the weight. The forces on the Graham escapement are now constant (force constant). The automated winding system is hidden under and behind the clockcase. The winding happens every 4 to 5 hours and takes circa 20 seconds. The case is made of high quality anodic treated aluminium with 8 mm glass in the sides and a 6 mm glass door. The antique hands-system is driven by the movement on the back of the clock. The electronics need 220 V.
