Straddling time from the ancient to the immediate, T-Rex Bronze creates a harmonious balance between mechanical and organic forms. This model switches out the original steel for bronze, the copper alloy whose mastery amounted to a technological revolution so immense that it ushered in a new age of early civilization.
The feet of the T-Rex Bronze are aged to create an earthy brown patina, and the entire bronze structure is oxidized by hand to “lock in time” its color and the unique characteristics of the material. This individual patination and stabilization means that no two clocks are alike.
