The « Napoleon Clock » was made in 1806 by Louis Moinet in Paris, and is equipped with an eight-day movement. It displays the hours, minutes and date.
The great originality of the « Napoleon Clock » lies in an outstanding mechanism displaying the moon phases inside the day hand, by means of a tiny ivory ball.

Napoleon and Josephine are crowned Emperor and Empress as soon as the music box is activated. To achieve this, an ingenious mechanism physically places the imperial crown on their heads.
Maréchal Murat clock
This exceptional clock of astonishing intricacy was manufactured for Marshal Joachim Murat, King of Naples.
The four different dials combine a full calendar indicating the hours, minutes, seconds, day, date, month and moon-phase.


The movement is entirely visible from the back. The key-winding mechanism is ingeniously concealed in the design of the clock.
