Complete scope of delivery
Everything you need to build your wall clock is included in the package:
Accessories
To give you the opportunity to enhance your clock kit both technically and visually, various accessories were considered from the very planning stage. The following extras let you personalise it in terms of durability, accuracy and appearance.
(*Reduced price when you return the original parts in perfect condition, or when ordering with your kit.)
Escapement lever with agate pallets
Upgrade kit
The escapement lever with agate pallets reduces the escapement friction of the Mechanica M1. The delivery includes a gold-plated escape wheel with a fully adjusted, complete anchor.
Price 770,– Euro
Reduced Price 630.– Euro*
Rubies for the escapement lever bearings
Upgrade kit
The longevity of the M1 can be enhanced with a set of rubies for the escapement lever bearings. The standard brass bushings will be replaced with non-wearing ruby bearings.
Price 200,– Euro
Hand-domed hands
Upgrade kit
The domed, polished and blued hour, minute and second hands are completely hand crafted. They will give your Mechanica a more elegant “face”. Available for standard and regulator dial.
Price 620,– Euro
Reduced Price 580,– Euro*
Bevelled glasses
Upgrade kit
All three panes of glass feature polished bevelled edges. Depending on the angle of the light, this design creates subtle reflections and ensures a harmonious transition between the crystal and the case.
Price 450,– Euro
Barometric instrument
Upgrade kit
To compensate the negative influence of changing air pressure a barometric instrument with aneroids can be delivered. This upgrade is a must to increase the accuracy of your Mechanica.
Price 860,– Euro
Pulley with ball-bearing
Upgrade kit
The ball-bearing pulley offers not only visual appeal but also two technical advantages: Its ball bearings do not wear and they keep frictional losses to a minimum, which improves the accuracy of the clock.
Price 370,– Euro
Reduced Price 330,– Euro*
Certificated weights for fine regulation
Accessories
The twelve-piece, certified weight set allows for precise, small corrections to be made, enabling even more accurate fine adjustments.
Price without wooden case:
190,– Euro
Elegant wooden case with magnetic closure: 100,– Euro
Set of fine polished screws
Upgrade kit
Four gold-plated washers and 24 finely polished and turned stainless steel screws add elegant accents to the movement. The careful refinement underlines the high standards of quality and gives the movement a particularly high-quality, harmonious appearance.
Price 300,– Euro
Reduced Price 290,– Euro*
Adjustable pendulum scale
Upgrade kit
The horizontally adjustable pendulum scale holder combines functional precision with an attractive design. It allows the pendulum tip to be aligned exactly with the ‘zero point’, thereby facilitating precise adjustment of the pendulum.
Price 320,– Euro
Pendulum lens
Upgrade kit
Due to the lower air resistance, a more consistent amplitude of oscillation and, consequently, an even more stable motion can be expected. The lenses are consecutively numbered and can be fitted with the engraving facing either forwards or backwards.
Available in bronze or polished nickel-plated.

Polished case holding screws
Upgrade kit
The four case-holding screws with polished, blued centres, as well as the two polished movement-holding screws, add subtle visual highlights to the case and movement. These elaborately refined details underline the high standards of quality and give the movement a particularly refined appearance.
Price 290,– Euro
Reduced Price 270,– Euro*
Glass window in the top of the case
Upgrade kit
The mineral glass integrated into the top of the case offers an additional view of the movement and effectively showcases its fascinating mechanics.
The light shining in from above highlights the fine details and high-quality finishes in a particularly striking way.
