How beautiful is this Winch Design and Thomas Mercer Nautilus, a horological sculpture fusing interior design and astronomical timekeeping? The mechanism of the Nautilus features a perpetual calendar which displays the day of the month, the month, and leap year. It also indicates the equation of time, which represents the difference between solar time (varying throughout the year as the earth nears or distances itself from the sun) and our 24-hours-per-day time (based on the worldwide consensus that every day should have the same duration). In addition to the zodiac, the celestial coordinates are completed with a magnificent 3-D moon sphere providing the different phases, combined with a moon age display showing - within the lunation cycle of 29 days, 44 minutes and 2.8 seconds - the time elapsed since the last new moon.

The earth is represented by a hemisphere on the Bovet Récital Grand Récital, the surface of which is adorned with an engraved and hand-painted map, on which the oceans, mountains, deserts, and forests are executed in painstaking detail. The difficulty of working on a hemispherical surface is compounded by the use of a technique unveiled by BOVET in 2017, in which the artisan incorporates luminescent substances into the miniature painting. The moon is represented by a sphere that makes a complete orbit once every 29.53 days exactly, which corresponds to the synodic period of our natural satellite. The high-precision mechanism that powers the moon and moon phase display, also visible on the Earth’s concentric ring, means that it will register a discrepancy of just one day every 122 years.
