The reading of the hours involves a crown-shaped
part, an ornament referring to
that of the Statue of Liberty, made up of
seven points. Its coppery hue is somewhat
reminiscent of Lady Liberty’s original color,
which has transformed over time into a
bluish-green.
The indication of the different time zones
translates a desire to connect to peoples
the world over. Every movement of the
second hand forms a story and combines
millions of destinies across the four
corners of the globe.
