The clock is powered by a spring through a handmade chain, which drives the movement through a Fusee to ensure the clock mechanism sees a constant torque. The movement is 8-days and is wound from the front cleverly lifting the bezel using the winding key to expose the winding Arbor. At the other end of the train a fly absorbs any shock loads at each index and prevents the tray indexing mechanism vibrating.
The single hand shows the hour with a mother of pearl disc detail, the chapter ring is machined and engraved, bead blasted, hand polished then to be either Platinum or Gold plated. Once plated the numerals are carefully waxed filled before being assembled.
The Congreve clock sits on to a Marble base and is housed by a bevelled glass shade which opens from the front for winding.
