The Charming Bird

Jaquet Droz's Charming Bird is a modern interpretation of an early automation singing bird. It is manufactured using micro mechanics, watchmaking skills, and modern materials to achieve the miniaturization of what were previously larger and static machines made in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This fantastic watch was developed over a three year period; the first prototype was finished in 2013, and the first watches launched into the market in 2014. Take a look.
