The "Hermle masterpiece" will be numbered and supplied
with an original certificate. The modern, elegant case with piano-finish
makassar wood has bevelled crystal glass on all sides, so you
can have a direct view on the complicated westminster bell strike
movement with auomatic night shut-off and 11 jewels escapement.
The newly developed technique of the eternal calender tells you
precisely the the day of thye month, the day of the week, the
month as well as the leap year. You therefore do not have to change
the date every second month. This brilliant technique is functioning
up to the year 2100. Only then, you will have to reset the calender,
because febuary 29 does not exsist during that year.

The tellurium clock reproduces the annual orbit of the earth around
the sun, with the earth rotating around its own axis once in 24
hours. The moon, in turn, revolves around the earth in 29.5 days
completing a full rotation around its axis. This allows the reproduction
of the different moon phases as they are visable from earth. In
the course of one year, the earth passes all 12 zodiac signs,
months and individual days which are indicated on the flat disc.
8-day spring wound movement with 4/4 westminster chime on 4 polished
bells. Separate second feature, 11 jewels escapement. Polished
brass disc has milled zodiac signs and rosettes in addition to
the months and days of the year. The tellurium has reproductions
of the sun, earth and moon, incorporating the day/month indicator.
