The highly accurate Astrolabium Clock has a quartz regulated month and zodiac disc and a sun, moon and earth ball. Through the visible highly intricate gear train system, Astrolabium reproduces the annual orbit of the earth around the sun, with the earth rotating around its own axis once in 24 hours and the moon revolves around the earth in 29.5 days, completing a full rotation around its axis. In the course of one year, the earth passes all twelve zodiac signs, months and individual days, which are indicated on the brass disc. The crystal dome is mouthblown, with charming irregularities that add to the old-world charm of this clock.
Astrolabium design evokes the delicate elegance of the 18th century, this specialty clock will ensure you are not only able to keep track of time but also of the days and months as well.
Its principal features include a white dial with Roman numerals as well as a delicate floral design, an intricate gear train system both of which are supported on a highly polished mahogany base.
The Hermle Astrolabium clock also features a month and zodiac disc as well as spheres representing the three celestial bodies, while its entire structure is covered by a clear crystal dome.
