Why we chose it

A note from the PRJKT8 team

We chose it because 40 days of power on a desk still sounds made up, and the cannons make everyone wait for the next 20 seconds. The chocolate PVD makes the space station warmer than the earlier palladium and ruthenium versions, which suits a study better than a launch pad.

The watch

The Starfleet Machine was the first clock MB&F and L'Epée made together, and this Chocolate Edition dresses its mechanism and main plate in brown PVD. There is no dial: the movement is the whole show.

Hours and minutes turn on the central dome, marked in MB&F's numerals. Twin laser cannons cross and fly back out to count off 20-second intervals. As the 40-day reserve runs down, the dome turns slowly along its arc and a radar dish turns with it; wind the clock and both swing back.

Five mainspring barrels in series hold those 40 days, so you can wind it once and forget it for over a month. The movement sits in stainless steel C-shaped rings and arcs, 29 cm across, and arrives with its own glass dome, 31.5 cm wide.
