The brushed stainless steel case combined with the timeless design of the dial makes this a durable classic. Whereas with most clocks you will hear the day ticking away, a Huygens clock has an innovative movement that ensures complete silence (and the right time) in any room. Using a stainless steel case combined with the best movement, you get a clock that honors the work of Christiaan Huygens (inventor of the first accurate clocks: the pendulum).
