Quite a few skillsets involved there, and everyone of them of the highest order. Astonishing work.

Amazing!

I would like to have a go at something like that but I don't think I have a hundred years left!

Extraordinary workmanship, the action of the oscillating balls on their arms reminded me of the Harrison H1 chronometer he made to resolve the problem of Longitude.

Lovely work
