I've been watching you for a while, and gathering inspiration. I wish I had the time for such amazing experimentations, I live in the core of watchmaking country and my dad was a watchmaker. But I must concentrate on drawing for now. Still I plan on making some jewellery with spare parts.
Anyway, I wanted to say that these gears are among the most beautiful things I've ever seen!

Wow. They look extremely beautiful all by themselves, even without the whole clock. Wonderful work!

I really enjoy seeing your new works. The distorted quality of your clocks is just lovely, and as a sculptor whose fascinated with the mechanical, I love visually dissecting your works.
Cheers,
K.

These are excellently crafted! Not to mention the photograph of them is incredible.

Not slowing down with cranking out another masterpiece, are you? I certainly hope you become rich from this some day, Eric; and I'd like to help when I have a real income!

I'd settle for being able to leave the full time job, and make a humble living as a clockmaker.

No doubt! Quite a nostalgic occupation.

The clock ( No.6 ) will be.

I won't know until it's finished, but my fully mechanical work starts at around 10 thousand. The quartz ones are much less expensive, starting at around one thousand.

THATS ALOT. BUT I GUESS THATS TRUE, YOU PUT ALOT OF WORK INTO YOUR ART. WELL IF THEY WERE LESS I WOULD SO BUY ONE. BUT STILL I LOVE TO LOOK AT THEM AND COLLECT THEM. I AM YOUR BIGGEST FAN. KEEP IT COMING.

Looks like real gem! Love the hand-tooling on bevels.
