Description

Finally, the dream becomes a reality and the team of dedicated engineers and designers at Ugears has worked hard to make it happen. Ugears proudly presents the Aero Clock, a fully functional wall clock with a pendulum that you can build yourself.

The Aero Clock is not just a three-dimensional, wooden, mechanical model, or simply a beautiful decorative clock. The Ugears Clock is a working clock that you can build yourself, hang on the wall, wind up, and watch as it counts the seconds, minutes, and hours.

The Aero Clock is a clever puzzle and has a clock mechanism that you can assemble yourself, unlike other clocks.

It is an exceptional piece of engineering that reveals the mechanisms of a pendulum clock. Like all Ugears models, it has that extra playful touch to captivate and enchant the thousands of fans of these models.

This simple yet elegant Ugears clock is powered by the force of gravity, pulling a bag that acts as a weight (you can fill the bag with sand or salt). Lift the bag to the height of the pulley to wind up the clock. As the weight slowly descends, it rotates a gear, which in turn rotates a wheel with notches through a reducer.

The clock has an adjustable pendulum with a weight that interacts with the wheel with notches through the steady beat of the main mechanism. You can adjust the clock with second precision by moving the upper and lower weights of the pendulum. The reducer transfers the motion to the disc that measures the hours and the one that measures the minutes. One of the most interesting features of the Aero Clock is that the time is not calculated with rotating hands on a dial, but a fixed hand indicates the time on numbered discs that rotate slowly and show the hours and minutes.

Also, these discs rotate in the opposite direction of the clock—did you know that before they all became the same, some clocks rotated clockwise and some counterclockwise? In the role of the "cuckoo," the Ugears Aero Clock has a balloon. The balloon, which is suspended, quickly descends when the hour strikes exactly, and then slowly rises during the next hour.

The thematic framework of the Aero Clock comes from the aeronautics of earlier times. Take a journey into history, to the first flights and the "balloon mania" that captivated France and England in 1783, when the first journey in the air with a balloon began. Then, two years later, the first aerial trip over the English Channel followed by the daring aeronauts Jean-Pierre Blanchard and John Jeffries.

We love the steampunk touch and the spirit of adventure that this wooden clock model gives, and we believe you will love it too! Imagine yourself as an explorer of new horizons and a conqueror of the four winds.

The case and the interesting mechanism of the watch represent an aerial base located among the clouds, where a breeze blows and the sun's rays splash the mechanism, while you, in the role of an aviator, prepare for a new exploration journey when a new hour begins. The wooden model watch from Ugears celebrates the role that watches played in exploration
