Free Pendulum Wall Clock, 1988
Pierre Boucheron
Barboursville, VA

After many years of research into principles of the free pendulum, Pierre Boucheron challenged himself to create a clock containing this "perfect" escapement. When an armature below the pendulum rod trips a light sensitive switch, an electrically driven impulse is triggered.
