DETAILS

L’Epée 1839 and The Unnamed Society are partnering to create a series of 100 unique pistol-shaped table clocks. One is available now at Goldsmith & Complications. It has a satin-finished palladium frame coated with black PVD. The grip combines forged carbon and Super-LumiNova, which glows blue in the dark.

The Pistol table clock takes its bold look from the legendary Colt Bisley, a single-action revolver introduced in the late 1800s. The Bisley’s hammer and trigger were wide, making it ideal for fast shooting. It was the weapon of choice for Pancho Villa, an icon of the Mexican revolution. For him, the Bisley stood for the power of revolution. For L’Epée 1839 and The Unnamed Society, the Pistol symbolizes the power of time and serves as a reminder of how fleeting it can be.

The tactile experience of the Pistol aims for realism with the gun’s functioning hammer and trigger. The Pistol has an eight-day power reserve that requires weekly winding, much like an owner cleaning their gun each week. Instead of a spinning cylinder, however, two rotating rings indicate the time. The time can be adjusted by turning the minute ring.
