Jaquet Droz La Machine a Ecrire le Temps

Perpetuelle.com. This time-writing masterpiece is housed in an unusual cage, whose aluminium frame is fitted with a liquid crystal glass, like a monolith travelling through time. A simple touch activates the clever mechanism: it is equipped with a stylus to mark the present time in hours and minutes. It boggles the mind to imagine the dexterity required to bring such an "impossible dream" to life. This wondrous object, issued in a Numerus Clausus edition of 28, features a system converting analogue time as indicated by the hands of a watch into mechanical digital time. This project was the brainchild of Manuel Emch, President and head of artistic creation at Montres Jaquet Droz, and was developed by the engineers and artisans at the Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. Firmly established in original company tradition, this project had only one objective: to create something dazzling! The result was astounding high-tech performance, inspired as much by the visionary spirit of the house as by its expertise.
