French Style Mystery Great wheel Water Tower Gravity Rolling Ball Industrial ClockFor your consideration is the mystery Water Tower Industrial Ball Bearing Clock. This water tower industrial clock has a big paddle wheel on the right side which hold a a set of small steel ball bearings. The weight of these balls is propelling the clock. The time reads from a large porcelain dial with black Roman numerals. Every minute, a small ball drops down from the water wheel onto the track where the steel ball rolls to the left side. The water tower with a large spiral pillar picks up and moves the ball bearings up one by one. Every 60 seconds, a steel ball drops from the left tower on the channel to the waterwheel. The cycle goes on as the clock keeps on running. The clock has a pendulum on the back to regulate the timing. The whole animation of this clock is just like a waterwheel except it's ball bearing "flowing" through channel and there is a clock on the big water wheel. The clock is protected by a glass dome with a front opening door for easy access. It measure 17-3/4" tall, 17-3/4" wide, and 8-3/4" deep including the glass dome. The original one is made in 1971 by Peter Bonnert. I'm sure this clock will upscale any clock store and/or make your collection more interesting.
