Profile

Hey HN! I'm an engineer who's always been interested in watches/clocks, so I recently started building in public. I'm creating desk clocks inspired by traditional aesthetics but with modern precision tech.Currently prototyping two models:- Type 1 — Tri-Date: Features a geometric triangular date layout with big date on a "squircle" dial (perpetual calendar).- Type 2 — Planétarium: Has a suspended Earth model that rotates every 24 hours on a real 23.5° tilt, showing which hemisphere is in daylight and how this changes through seasons.Technical stack summary: - ESP32-S2 with ESP-IDF (not Arduino) - High precision stepper motors - TMC2208 controllers for silent operation - DS3231 RTC with WiFi s

The company sits in the show hn launch segment, where it competes on its core product or service.

Directory data places it at the Show HN launch stage.
