MB&F and L’Epée 1839 have announced a new mechanical clock that consists of 268 components and transforms between lying horizontally, to crouching, to sitting up.

The Grant mechanical clock is named after a WWII tank and is armed with a spinning disk in its left hand and a removable grenade launcher in its right hand (that doubles as the winding and time-setting key).

An Incabloc shock protection system keeps him safe from attacks, so to speak, and prevents damage from shocks. Three rubber tracks allow Grant to move around.

A hand-wound movement drives the hour and minute hands for up to do 8-days. Grant is available in three limited editions of 50 pieces each in nickel, black, or blue. Retail price is CHF 22,200.
