法国制作的400天扭摆钟

存世的400天钟绝大多数都是德国制造的，或许法国人厌倦了德国的古板，使用德国机芯于20世纪而按照法国人的审美和情趣制作了本款400天扭摆钟，细腻的钟盘设计和缟玛瑙大理石外观的配合，体现了简约式的奢华。特上传共赏。
尺寸：17cm*13.5cm*29cm

就是在外观上有了变化

谢谢分享。

也就是说，万变不离其宗？

北方市场400天钟很有人缘

这里找到了一些关于400天钟的资料，整个的发展不能归结于哪一个国家，一个不断渐进的过程，法国人的400天钟是一种法国艺术和400天机芯的结合。而真正400天钟达到标准精确走时的还是到20世纪中期由德国人批量生产的，在此之前的记载用了 poor timekeepers 形容，德国人在1900年左右就大批量生产过的大概就属于poor timekeepers之类的。以下是全文：
he torsion pendulum was invented by Robert Leslie in 1793.[3] The torsion pendulum clock was first invented and patented by American Aaron Crane in 1841.[4] He made clocks that would run up to one year on a winding. He also attempted to make precision astronomical regulator clocks based on the torsion pendulum, but only sold four.
The German Anton Harder apparently independently invented and patented the torsion clock in 1879-1880.[4] He was inspired by watching a hanging chandelier rotate after a servant had turned it to light the candles. He formed the firm Jahresuhrenfabrik ('Year Clock Factory') and designed a clock that would run for a year, but its accuracy was bad. He sold the patent in 1884 to F. A. L. deGruyter of Amsterdam, who allowed the patent to expire in 1887. Other firms entered the market, beginning the German mass production of these clocks.
Although they were successful commercially, torsion clocks remained poor timekeepers. In 1951, Charles Terwilliger of the Horolovar Co. invented a temperature compensating suspension spring, which allowed fairly accurate clocks to be made.

400天钟与那积家的Atmos空气钟一样,同属所谓Torsion clock(扭动钟)的一种. 它算是新入门藏友的一个好的选择, 因为价格较便宜而机械结构较简单.但也挺好玩.此类钟以德国生产较多和普及,而德国人在20世纪初段所生产的6柱带节的,39公分高,因时代较远,多人喜爱,也较为值钱. 这类400天钟,通常所带的钟摆是4颗珠子或圆饼形. 而后者因较为早期,故市场价会相应贵一点. 以上的这类钟,其形状全是圆形带炮弹形玻璃罩,宽底座.黄铜制造,上一次发条可走大约一年.

至于法国生产的 400 天,数量相对德国的少,故价格也较贵.跟德国钟不一样,通常是四明钟,四方形,而其钟摆大部份是圆饼形. 跟德国钟一样,从后面上发条.但以下图片我的一台是前面上发条的,可算是另一款典型法国400 天钟.供大家参考:





同时这类钟也有多一点功能的:以下一台带温度计和发条剩余天数显示,其珠形钟摆在钟的中间:





其实法国制造的400天钟,我认为最高级的,应是带内填珐琅或掐丝珐琅彩的400天钟了,以下为几款较高级的,较为罕见的400天,供对此有兴趣的藏友参考欣赏:

造成这种400日钟变成“poor timekeepers”的原因有哪些？

每年过生日的时候上次发条，挺有纪‘念意义的

有道理，

这种挂着钢丝的钟每次见到都忍不住摆弄他一下
