Planetimer Tourbillon Watch

Double side planetary self-winding tourbillon watch as Live Wallpaper

The realistic movement live wallpaper of planetary-tourbillon watch, as engineering solution, based on mechanical planetimer concept.

The whole clock kinematics: gearings, ratchets, springs, balances, winding and anchor escapements moves in correspondence of physics laws. The reverse design with visualization of engagements and balance-spring mechanics.

THE POSSIBILITIES (look on the features picture)

Skeleton with reverse modes;

Concentric from outside to inside orbits:

Second’s hand and satellites movement with spin lobes indication;

Minute satellites movement with spin lobes indication;

Hour satellites movement with spin lobes indication;

Weekday satellites movement with spin lobes indication;

Barrel spring winding stage indicates the current energy storage of its, after the full unwinding of the barrel spring the watch will stop until half turn of the weight sector, which run.

ASSUMPTION AND RESTRICTIONS

In spite of the prototype mechanics supposes to use hand-winding, instead of that by periodical turning by fingers the barrel inside, used sector eccentric weight which turns with your device orientation (gravity device possibility). Full winding is occurred, at: 4.6 turns in counter- and 4 turns in clockwise direction. After the whole winding of mainspring the sector idle-rotation is realized. The full mainspring power is enough for 25.9 hours.

The time setting is assumed on real mechanics, but not used in this applet and corresponded to the time on your device.

The most satellites and some sun gears presents the gear blocks however, to avoid overloading of the picture the background gears are not displayed.

The real speed of balance is 8 oscillations per seconds, what is default on the applet.

CUSTOMIZATION

Fully background, gears and case colors; speed of the balances oscillations, scale and relative position on the screen.

HINTS

Double click on any setting value sets it to the default.

Not install-over, just find in the application list.

Please, be patient in redrawing by installing and settings. The vector graphics needs the time for rendering during repainting!

FREE VERSION PARTICULARITIES

- The FREE version has advertisements on settings menus, the FULL does not;

- The FREE version has full functionality but after 12 hours, the customized color settings are reset to the default values;

- The FREE version has demonstration tester inscription on an armband axis;

- The FULL version is optimized.

REQUIREMENTS

The minimal Android version: 4.2.2

The gravity device possibility is needed for watch winding. Without this possibility, the barrel spring is stopped and the watch will run forever.
