He built the regulator clock for the King's Observatory Kew, which served as an unofficial Prime Meridian and official time of London until 1884.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Greenwich regulator is a superb example of the art of the British clockmaker. The movement features a Vulliamy style deadbeat escapement. A temperature compensated pendulum based on an elegant design by John Ellicott in 1752 enhances the accuracy. Maintaining power, as devised by John Arnold (1736-1799), ensures precision is retained when the movement is wound. An elegant design of epicyclic gears allows the movement to run a month before needing to be wound. A special limited edition version was made by Comitti in 2012 to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee. The original timepiece now resides in Buckingham Palace.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA superb contemporary version of The Greenwich regulator in a black lacquer and carbon fiber cabinet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Comitti","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52857784893751,"sku":"S3603S","price":63000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2486\/2344\/files\/imgi_15_4a16101cb624b77539f613800f88f78b867dbcdc_1024x_f94e5075-5ffc-434a-b246-e180af62d812.png?v=1786980804","url":"https:\/\/timelyandtimeless.com\/products\/comitti-of-london-the-royal-greenwich-regulator-wall-clock-in-black-lacquer-and-carbon-fibre","provider":"Timely \u0026 Timeless","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
