Literature
For another example of a Louis XV Cartel
clock which is identical to the present lot,
please see Patek Philippe Museum, Patek
Philippe Watches Volume II, page 401.
This clock in the Louis XV style
is powered by caliber 17’’’250.
The movement is powered by
speed increasing gears, activated
approximately every 5 hours by
an electric micro motor, powered
by an accumulator, charged by
a photoelectric cell on the front
of the clock, beneath the dial.
The clock is in extremely well
preserved condition.
