Panerai Ferrari Replica's "mystery clocks", famous for their modern complications, have been imagined in limited edition wristwatches.
There's a certain allure to being enchanted by the samemagic trick, over and over again -- the whimsicalpresentation of a man prancing on stage in adramatic cloak, brandishing swords and waving handkerchiefs only to set them ablaze, and summoning whitedoves in midair. It's the illusionist's responsibility to keep his audience captivated, even if they've seen it all before. You've likely noticed his quick wrist flick, secret trapdoor and other distractions. We leave the show feeling satisfied that we enjoyed the show and confident in the knowledge that we had it all figured all along.
Panerai Ferrari Replica used to be on such a platform. It did not slice people in half or turn cards into confetti. Instead, it created a time-mechanic effect that separated the Sun fromthe Stars. Panerai Ferrari Replica 's exclusive table clocks, called "planet clocks" or "comets", with their unique day/night indicators were born from the geniuses of Louis Panerai Ferrari Replica & Maurice Couet. It wasn't a sudden epiphany that Couet's illusions were incorporated into his clocks. The watchmaker was inspired by the work of French illusionist Jean Eugene Robert Houdin to "hide", the clock components.
Maurice Couet was born into a clockmaking family. His grandfather worked as a regulator in Breguet table clocks during the 19th century. Couet, as a young man, trained in his father’s workshop, and then worked at Prevost, which supplied movements to Panerai Ferrari Replica. In 1911, Couet opened his own workshop in Paris and became the exclusive clockmaker for Panerai Ferrari Replica. Science and mathematics were influencing the arts at the time, which led Couet to design similar clocks. Astronomy inspired designs were used in Panerai Ferrari Replica's jewellery and horological divisions,Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Replica leading to the first day-and night clock.
In 1912 the first planet clocks, consisting of round or angular case with two dials superimposed on top, were produced. The lower dials were usually made of light or dark blue enamel and would rotate constantly to represent the day or night skies. A crescent moon in diamonds was sometimes used to indicate the nighttime hours. One model of that year had a central disc with an orbiting comet, and the minutes were read by a pointer which circled around a concentric ring.
