🌐 The Mechanical Masterpiece That Brings the World to Your Wall
The Original Kilburg Geochron remains the gold standard for global timekeeping instruments. With its brushed stainless steel finish, this timeless showpiece seamlessly marries sleek, contemporary style with unrivalled mechanical precision—an enduring addition to any office, library, command centre, or sophisticated living space.
🕰️ A Living Map of the World
Unlike any other timepiece, the Geochron is a dynamic, mechanical display of time zones, daylight, and global position:
-
Moving Map Display: A colourful, continuous belt map (roughly 2×3 ft. in size) glides from left to right, precisely mirroring the rotation of the Earth and letting you instantly see where day meets night, anywhere on the globe.
-
Legal Time Zones: Dark blue lines indicate all legal time zone boundaries, converging at lettered markers on the top edge. These letters also correspond to international shortwave radio prefixes.
-
Real-Time Solar Cycle: The shifting daylight bar shows the precise moment of sunrise and sunset across continents in real time.
Every Moment, Every Detail
At any glance, the Original Kilburg Geochron shows:
✅ Legal time zones worldwide
✅ Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and Greenwich Apparent Time
✅ Local Apparent Time (anywhere)
✅ Moment of sunrise and sunset
✅ Daylight duration in every region
✅ Sun’s meridian passage
✅ Sun’s equation of time
✅ Degrees of latitude and longitude
⚙️ Handcrafted Precision – Made Just For You
No two Geochrons are alike. Each unit is individually assembled to order in the USA by expert technicians. During ordering, you customise:
-
Trim Colour: Select Black, Gold, or Silver for the trim that frames the face, time band, and date band—allowing you to complement your decor perfectly.
-
Time Band Format: Choose a 12-hour or 24-hour time band displayed along the top edge of the map, based on your preference and use.
Your bespoke Geochron is then carefully assembled, tested, and packaged for delivery—taking approximately 2–3 weeks from the date of order confirmation.
