This was a really good exhibit. I've restored spring driven clocks and grandfather clocks which share some similarities and mechanical concepts and I thought this was cool.

Fabulous, but I have a few questions:
-how do you read the watch face with no numbers? -if I look into my applewatch will I see the same thing? -who paid for this elaborate explanation? |

So I guess there is more to the internet than pornography.
