For years we have been hearing the question from our loyal customers again and again: is Ugears able to create a model kit for a working clock that really shows the exact time? A working wooden mechanical watch has long been the #1 most-desired new design. Your dream was our dream too, and the Ugears engineering and design team worked hard to make this shared dream a reality. Finally the wait is over. Ugears is proud to introduce the Aero clock, a fully functional pendulum wall clock. The Aero watch isn't just a mechanical 3D wooden model or a nice showpiece. This model from Ugears is a really working clock that you can assemble, wall mount and wind up yourself, then watch the seconds, minutes and hours tick by. The Aero watch is an ingenious puzzle and movement unlike Allen other watch. It is a magnificent piece of precise engineering that reveals the workings of a pendulum clock to both modellers and viewers. This simple yet elegant Ugears watch is powered by gravity pulling down a weight pocket (you can fill this pocket with sand or salt). Move the bag up on its reel to wind the watch. As the weight slowly descends, it turns a drive gear, which in turn, via a reduction mechanism, turns an escapement wheel. The clock has a pendulum with an adjustable weight. This pendulum interacts with the escapement wheel via the steady tick-tock of the lever's mechanism. By moving the top and bottom weights of the pendulum, you can fine-tune the ticking of the clock to the second. The reduction gear also transmits rotation to an hour disc and a minute disc. One of the most interesting features of our Aero watch is that the time is not read by rotating clock hands on a dial. Instead, a fixed hand indicates the time on slowly rotating hour and minute discs, which are numbered. In addition, these discs rotate counterclockwise. Did you know that before standardization, some clocks moved clockwise and others counterclockwise? A hot-air balloon model takes on the role of the cuckoo in the Ugears Aero watch. The floating balloon descends rapidly when the hour strikes, then slowly rises again over the next hour. The theme of the Aero watch is the early days of aviation. Travel back to the early days of aviation and ballooning that swept through France and England in 1783 with the first free balloon flight. Two years later, intrepid aviators Jean-Pierre Blanchard and John Jeffries made the first flying crossing of the English Channel. We're excited about the steampunk sensibility and adventurous spirit of this wooden clock model — and we're sure you will be too! Imagine yourself as an explorer of new horizons and a conqueror of the four winds! The case and intriguing movement of this wooden model depicts an airfield among the clouds, where Zephyr's westerly winds blow and sunbeams punctuate the engines as you, as the aviator, embark on a new voyage of discovery on the hour. The Ugears Wooden Clock Model Kit celebrates the role clocks played in exploration. Did you know that the problem of accurately determining longitude, which is so important for seafaring navigation, was solved with a clock? The Dutch mathematician Gemma Frisius came up with the idea in 1530, but it was not until the middle of the 18th century. Century, when the English watchmaker John Harrison developed a series of watches suitable for ships with high accuracy (precision up to ? second per day), ship captains could pinpoint their position at sea to within a few nautical miles. Now that the navigators knew the exact time in London (Greenwich Prime Meridian Mean Solar Time, GMT) and could determine the time at their current location by observing the sky, they were able to calculate their position on the earth's surface. The problem of latitude was already addressed by the Phoenicians in 600 BC. Chr. solved by celestial calculations — by measuring the position of the sun at noon or calculating the angle between Polaris (or other navigational stars) and the horizon. But the problem of geographic longitude was to be a hard nut to crack for explorers for another 2,000 years. Now you too can become a watchmaker with the Ugears Aero Clock model kit! At a moment when the world seems to be spinning more slowly, Ugears' Aero clock - a wooden wall clock with pendulum that you can assemble yourself - is both contemporary and timeless in its simple elegance. This beautiful and functional wooden wall clock model is aimed at watchmakers, model makers, researchers, creative and romantic people of all kinds, at anyone ready to face new challenges and risks. If you've ever looked up at the sky and thought, 'I wish I could be there!' or looked at a pendulum and wondered, 'How does it work?' then the Ugears Aero watch is for you. Assembling the Aero clock, a wall clock with a natural wood pendulum, you will learn the basic working principles behind clock movements. You will learn how the stabilizing influence of the oscillating pendulum works via a rocking anchor mechanism, how the gears can engage and disengage in the anchor escapement every second and regulate the (slow) sinking of a weight, since both the gears of the drive and the of the timekeeping are driven. The Ugears Aero clock with pendulum is a wonderful puzzle, a fantastic project for the whole family. When you work together on this wooden clock model kit, you will feel the satisfaction of creating something together — and not just any model, but a real working timepiece, and what's more, you end up with a beautiful decoration for your home, which that you and your family can enjoy every day.
