About this product
Art. : 334-37

Time flies: the first pendant clock surpasses itself, goes further, higher, faster; or, at a leisurely pace, soars in the clouds. L'Épée 1839 previously included several flying objects in its collection, but today it presents the first of them that gave humanity the gift of flight: a balloon!" 
An official partner of l'École cantonale d'art de Lausanne (ECAL) and, in particular, its Master's program in advanced research in luxury and craftsmanship design, L'Épée 1839 created this travel-themed watch in collaboration with a talented designer. student Margot Clavier.
People have always wanted to fly: from Icarus to Leonardo da Vinci, not forgetting the wide-eyed child in each of us. At an early stage, science identified the Archimedes principle, which, although more often applied to liquids, can also be applied to gases. Based on this principle of hydromechanics, we can imagine a huge balloon capable of lifting people into the air. A bit of genius and, undoubtedly, a significant element of madness allowed the first balloon to take off at the end of the 18th century, ready to fulfill the ambition and dream of exploring the sky.
Created by Margot Clavier, Hot Balloon embodies the dream of travel and adventure. As her first ECAL project, the collaboration with l'Épée 1839 set her a serious task: to develop a mechanical watch. After visiting the production in Delemont, Margot quickly seized on the idea of a balloon, which caused a worldwide sensation when it first took to the air in 1783. Inspired by the aesthetics of the very first balloons, Hot Balloon presents an elegant contrast of visible mechanical parts and metal parts in a variety of finishes and exquisite decorations. 
Each component of a mechanical watch is designed to resemble parts of a balloon: the rotation of the basket starts the mechanism; the burners serve as a trigger; the flame indicates the hours and minutes; and, finally, the envelope (balloon) with its wide openings gives the product an impressive transparent, airy appearance.
L'Épée 1839 presented its flight on a leash in a very special way, offering a completely new way of representing time. The Hot Balloon can be placed on a desk, table or shelf, as well as hung directly from the ceiling, floating in the air above it all — a first for a mechanical watch of this scale. 
Therefore, the Hot Balloon comes with a hanging kit. A very thin cable, fully integrated into the watch's design, attaches to the balloon, allowing it to take off. 
The time is displayed on the burner of the ball; a two-pointed needle, resembling a flame, indicates the hours and minutes on two black cylinders placed on top of each other.  
The crown for setting the time is located under the vertical trigger mechanism, and its gear is located between the basket and the burner, in place of the blow valve. Just as the flow of gas inflating a balloon is regulated by a starting valve, the time of the watch is regulated by this crown. 
 The watch factory includes the entire basket. No matter how the Hot Balloon is displayed, to wind up the clock, simply rotate the base several times (usually six revolutions) to provide enough power for eight days of flight. For greater ease of use, especially when the Hot Balloon is placed on the table, L'Épée 1839 also allows you to wind up the watch by turning the upper ring of the basket so as not to lift the watch.

The company L'Epée 1839, specializing in the production of luxury watches, understands the intricacies of watchmaking, offers a diverse collection of modern table clocks. Since watchmaking is not the simplest art, L'Epée had to overcome many obstacles on the way to creating the best, successfully combining simple design with technically complex execution. 

The watch is available in a limited edition of 50 pieces of each color.
