🌍 A Masterpiece of Precision, Function, and Global Insight

The Original Kilburg Geochron is more than just a clock—it’s a mechanical marvel that brings the Earth’s rotation, global timekeeping, and political geography together in a single, striking display. Housed in a sleek black anodized aluminium frame, this iconic world clock has adorned the walls of NASA offices, research institutes, government departments, and discerning homes for over half a century.

With its constantly moving world map and advanced mechanical design, the Geochron allows you to determine the exact time in every global time zone, along with day/night demarcation and solar activity—all in real time.

🧭 What the Geochron Displays

The Kilburg model is unique in how it visually communicates the Earth’s relationship to time and light. The following data is displayed dynamically and mechanically—no screens, no software, no batteries required:

🌐 Legal Time Zones (with labelled zone indicators)
🕓 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
🌞 Greenwich Apparent Time (solar time at Greenwich)
🕰️ Local Apparent Time (true solar time for each longitude)
🌅 Sunrise & Sunset Lines (updated live with Earth’s rotation)
🌄 Duration of Daylight across all latitudes
🌓 Sun’s Meridian Passage
🌀 Sun’s Equation of Time
📐 Degrees of Latitude & Longitude

The Geochron is the only mechanical device in the world that can simultaneously display all of this information in a continuously updating visual format.

🗺️ Mapset: Geopolitical

This model features the Geopolitical mapset, colour-coded by country and updated with the latest international boundaries. The high-resolution print is sharp, vibrant, and precise—making it an exceptional reference for diplomats, travellers, educators, or anyone seeking a real-time view of how human geography interacts with time.
