Bovet Récital 22 Grand Récital

The sun is represented by the oneminute flying tourbillon, the raised carriage bridge of which evokes the sun’s fiery rays. An index fixed to the carriage wheel indicates the seconds on a 1200 sector scaled to 20 seconds. The imposing, hemispherical Earth, on which oceans, relief, deserts, forests, clouds and air currents are meticulously represented, rotates around its own axis and indicates the hours over a natural cycle of 24 hours. Lastly, a spherical moon orbits the Earth according to its exact synodic period of 29,53 days.
