Tick Tock Goes The Clock

I like Clocks.

archiemcphee:

Ukrainian watchmaker Valerii Danevych creates extraordinary timepieces that, with the exception of a metal spring, are completely made of wood. These awesome watches are beautiful to behold and completely functional. 

Valeri comes from a family of wood carvers in Kiev and began to learn the art of wood carving in childhood. Fascinated by clock mechanisms, he began building wooden clocks, wristwatches, and pocket watches in 2005. Made of birch, Valeri’s amazing timepieces can store up to 20 hours of reserve power. The level of detail - all those tiny little parts - is truly astonishing.

Visit Valerii Danevych’s website to view more of his incredible wooden watches.

Ref. 1160 pocket watch that was a painstakingly made (over three years of work) replica of the original Breguet Marie Antoinette pocket watch that was itself completed in the 1840s after almost 40 years of efforts.

harryhadouken asked: This blog need more cool pocketwatches. :D

I’ll see what I can do :P

Don’t forget, you’re more than welcome to submit any interesting/awesome/beautiful timepieces yourself.

IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU’RE WEARING TODAY? I MEAN YOU’RE ALREADY LATE SO I’D GO CHANGE AT THIS POINT.” SASSY GAY GRANDFATHER CLOCK

Sorry for the absence guys, busy moving back into my house after we had some earthquake repairs done and trying to locate and put back up the zillions of clocks we had to take off the walls. Anyway, here’s a clock that looks like a Rubik’s cube.

treefortlab: How friggin sweet is this? A clock made of bicycle cogs, it’s a birch plywood clock hand-built by Graham McNamara. The numbers are printed on the 24 tooth cog, and the two smallest cogs move indicating hours and minutes.
