An interesting piece of timekeeping

[J. Tallman]

It is not a sundial, but interesting nonetheless:

It is quite a feast for the eyes, and the mind...and if you have a spare 
million lying around, it could be yours!

True, but if I can get 125 sponsors of $400 each I can write you a 
smartphone app that has all the same features, looks similiar, and is 10 
times more accurate - and it will adjust to your local timezone and 
labelling in 10 languages to boot :)

Thanks for the URL Jim,

What an amazing piece of technology! Stunning. I’d love to see a large version, 
about 30 cm in diameter so that the inner guts are easier to see. It’s 
certainly a tribute to modern machining and manufacturing. It makes the Apple 
watches look like a piece of disposable plastic.

I was so impressed that I was getting ready to sell my two wonderful grand-kids 
into white slavery to cover a cheque to buy one. But then I realised that it 
only has the celestial chart for the Northern Hemisphere. Not much use here in 
Sydney, so it looks like my grand-kids are safe for a while longer. 


Cheers, John
