Spelling Out Time, Not Just Displaying It\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI make my clocks in south-west France, close to the beaches of the Landes. The idea is to tell the time differently \u2014 not with numbers or hands that we glance at out of habit, but with words, and with a few messages that celebrate those special moments in everyone\u2019s day.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

An Engineering Background, Crafted by Hand\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWith an engineering background, I designed everything myself: 3D modelling, prototypes, display programming, configuration interfaces and apps, right through to the packaging. Today, I carefully select the materials, assemble each clock by hand and test it at every stage. I continue to develop and improve them, with updates that extend their lifespan and ensure they never become outdated.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
