Notes

What is a regulator dial?Regulator dials indicate hours, minutes and seconds separately. They are typical of master clocks used in observatories and chronometry workshops. The decentralized hours of the regulator dial is intended to ensure that the hour-hand does not interfere with the seconds indication.
