About This Work
Liberty is a contemporary continuation of a lineage of luxury clocks dedicated to nostalgia, creativity and, above all, freedom of imagination. Inspired by the Italian variant of Art Nouveau, known as “Liberty,” M.O.M. brings back this early twentieth-century decorative style, allowing each patron to become an artist, creating their own clock. In an age of mass and serial production, M.O.M. celebrates the individual, etching each client’s unique design into a custom Liberty clock. Liberty is meticulously crafted and assembled in Meccaniche Orologi Milano's workshop in Milan, Italy.
THE MOVEMENT
A 30-day spring driven barrel drives a 2/3 second Invar pendulum, Graham deadbeat escapement and elegantly minimal set of 18kt rose gold or 24kt yellow gold plated gears. Gold plated hands occupy the space in front of the glass plate, while the movement exists behind. Arbors, columns & brushes are mirror polished. View technical specs for complete details.THE BODY
It is important to remember that many of the body materials can be customized. The 80lb structure is housed in a lacquered alder case with a special high gloss finish. A customizable, flame-hardened extraclear crystal separates the clock hands from the movement assembly.CUSTOM EDITIONS
Alessandro wants each patron to have the option to own a unique edition. Although the mechanics and size of the movement cannot be customized, most of the design elements can (beyond what is shown). Please contact Kirk for material samples and more information.CREATOR
