UGears Engine Clock Mechanical Model Kit Tan 265 pc

Description

What do they say about a finely tuned motor it runs like clockwork. Flip the script with the Ugears Engine Clock, a finely tuned clock that runs (and looks) like a motor. This functional mechanical table clock with pendulum has an automotive theme throughout, with an engine block design on top with moving pistons, and a time display in the style of a speedometer (hours) and tachometer (minutes). The action of the clock’s pendulum and escapement make a delightful ticking sound, as the passing seconds are displayed on the escapement at the rear of the clock. The Engine Clock tells time for up to 5 hours on a single winding (running time can be extended an additional 60 to 90 minutes if the pistons are disengaged). A retrograde mechanism on the minute hand automatically resets after 60 minutes. Wind your Engine Clock using the ignition key at the front of the clock. To set the time, turn the large gear closest to the face of the clock (the retrograde mechanism) in a clockwise direction until the minute hand falls to zero, then use your finger to move the hour hand counterclockwise, positioning it at the current hour. Set the minute hand at the current time by again turning the large gear just behind the clock face. If the clock is running fast or slow, you can adjust the pendulum. Raise or lower the circular weight at the bottom of the pendulum for larger time adjustments and raise or lower the ball at the top of the pendulum for fine tuning.
