Tell time in an uncharacteristic
manner with Arachnophobia by Swiss watch manufacturer MB&F and engineered
and crafted by L’Epée.
The eight legged timepiece
was inspired by the giant spider sculpture called Maman (mother in French) created by French-American
artist and sculptor Louise Bourgeois. The body of the clock is outfitted with a black dome
with white numerals depicting the hours and minutes.
The head houses a regulator
with its oscillating balance wheel, while the base contains the mainspring
barrel, which powers the movement. The
visually enticing legs are attached to the body, connected by ball-and-socket
joints, enabling it to stand tall or splayed flat for wall mounting.
Arachnophobia is available
in two colours, realistic-looking black and an artistic 18k yellow gold-plated
edition.
