The Most Complicated Mechanical Clock in the World

Is something I’d like to see:

Among the 70 dials (and 122 indications) are: a perpetual calendar, leap year cycles; sunrise and sunset; local times at seventeen world-wide places; and animated tidal charts in eight different French ports.

Now that I am a seaside denizen of Malibu, and attuned to the ways of the waves, I appreciate such fine detail. Surfline is handy, but just doesn’t have the charm of an intricate machine with 40,000 moving parts. All the Besançon timepiece needs is a dial for Pt Dume tides. And a window indicating the precise, universal and astronomically accurate arrival of 4:20!
