Reloj Tourbillon de Sobremesa Astrónomo
¡Mónteme! ¡Agarre el momento estelar!
La teoría del Universo de Relojería o Universo Máquina sostenida por los deístas del siglo XVII decía que la Tierra y el firmamento así como todos sus movimientos se parecían a un reloj gigante, con Dios como Relojero. Se suponía que las tres leyes del movimiento y la ley de la gravitación universal de Newton eran suficientes para explicar cualquier tipo de fenómeno, utilizando para ello conceptos mecánicos. ¡En Ugears nos encantan los conceptos mecánicos! ¡Así, y con un guiño a Isaac Newton, presentamos el Reloj Tourbillon de Sobremesa Astrónomo, una combinación fascinante de un imaginativo observatorio astronómico y un reloj de sobremesa funcional!
La característica destacada de esta maravillosa y operativa maqueta de reloj de sobremesa de madera es el tourbillon giratorio asentado en la parte superior. En relojes de pulsera y de bolsillo, este mecanismo ayuda a mejorar la precisión, contrarrestando los efectos de la fuerza de gravedad cuando el reloj se encuentra en estado estacionario. Colocando la rueda de escape y el volante regulador en una jaula giratoria, se logra compensar pequeños errores relacionados con el movimiento del reloj y causados por la fuerza de gravedad. En los relojes de sobremesa y de pared, el tourbillon a menudo tiene un fin más bien decorativo. Esto es así en el Reloj Tourbillon de Sobremesa Astrónomo de Ugears, en el que el diseño de la esfera del tourbillon recuerda a un observatorio astronómico de telescopios largos que escudriñan la esfera celeste, como los del monte Mauna Kea en Hawái. ¿Tal vez está creando un mapa del firmamento? ¿O realizando estudios con infrarrojos? ¿O quizás buscando nuevos planetas o señales de vida inteligente?
Características del Reloj Astrónomo:
- Operativo reloj mecánico de sobremesa
- Propulsado por un motor de resorte

Fun project
Now if I can just get it to work. LoL
An excellent puzzle! A challenge to build and impressive to show off. Adequate instructions, easy to follow. Not for beginners though! And extreme care must be taken - this is very intricate puzzle, and demands full attention at all times. (I made one minor mistake: I installed the UGEARS logo backwards on the top part.) They point out that you need to seat the top tourbillon part. However, once it is completed, there is a breaking-in period: The first time it only ran a few seconds, but I kept restarting it and now it runs continuously.
Amazing pieces, amazing escapement, wonderful
Just received my Ugears and looking forward to the build.
Hier passt Alles!
I have ordered from this company several times, and have always been very pleased with the items they make excellent presents, will order again from this company.
I assembled this model about three years ago, and I found it quite interesting from a technical point of view. I was pleased with the assembly process, but the design itself is very capricious and may not work the first time. I also could not set the exact speed of the clock, so I cannot use it for its intended purpose. However, the model is beautiful and it is pleasant to watch it work. I can recommend it.
PERFECTO
I like a challenge, and this fits the bill! First off, the information provided on the website and on the box indicates that this is not for beginners; be warned! Also, there are parts of the provided instructions that are difficult to understand; high-contrast printing could improve this. (Of course, that can wait until the war is over.)
That being said, it is an amazingly clever device, and very well designed! For the times I got stuck (having no idea at the time what a tourbillon is), there are YouTube videos to help.
Best advice for those considering this? Be thorough with the sanding and waxing - I recommend not only waxing the parts as indicated, but looking ahead to see if the waxed part touches something; if so, wax that as well. The end result is well worth it!
All in all, this was an excellent experience, creating a beautiful, unique clock. I'm still in the adjusting phase, so I'm not sure how long I can get it to run per winding, but that's part of the fun!
Great building experience. Mine ticks away for quite a while until the internal friction of the many wooden pieces becomes too much. This I expected. Critical issues that should have been explained in an addendum (or corrected int the engineering of it) is piece #5. This piece advances the hour mechanism. Unfortunately in mine it seemed to be about 0.5mm to big so it did not "fall" in order to advance the hour. I tried to sand it later, but this is very difficult to do once the whole thing is put together. The other issue was in page 42, pieces 127 to 131 they need to be glued with some superglue because this part is in constant movement, I whish this would be suggested somewhere so we don't have to go back and do it later. It is critical that all rotating pieces be properly sanded and waxed. Otherwise fantastic build.
