MB&F Grant Robot Clock By L’Epée

Are you ready for the next genre-defying, mind-expanding robot clock in the ongoing collaboration between MB&F and clockmaker L'Epée? MB&F's horological art is so unconventional that it could be slightly confusing at first encounter Now more familiar and established, something like the new MB&F Grant produced by Swiss L'Epée is getting easier to wrap one's mind around The MB&F Grant is an extension of a concept that has taken multiple forms: that of mechanical desk clocks designed to also be interactive sci-fi toys and finished to haute horology standards.

Thematically and in terms of appearance and functions, the MB&F Grant seems most closely related to the MB&F Sherman robot clock Both named for WWII tanks, the MB&F Grant is a bit more aggressive-looking than the friendly Sherman that similarly had tread and a simple two-hand clock - the prominent escapement under a dome as its "Brain" is a feature of all the robot clocks, I believe The MB&F Grant appears much more tank-like and weaponized: it has what resembles a circular saw blade and cannon and, depending on its position, looks more like a vehicle.

L'Epée developed the MB&F Grant around its own in-line manufacture movement with eight days of power reserve. . Source
