Cet ancien mécamisme est complexe et esthétiquement agréable à regarder, et la lumière bleue, qui doit venir d'un vitrail, met bien en valeur ses engrenages.........magnifique prise de vue, Jean-Claude !

Its designers seem to have had a good concept of gear driven technology.

What an amazing mechanism. If it is still working, I think it needs a good cleaning and lubrication. Super catch and photo.

Ce mécanisme d'horloge fleure bon l'époque où le temps ne s'emballait jamais, quel que soit ce qui était vécu au jour le jour. Une très belle photo et témoignage de notre patrimoine, J-Claude.
