A Bold Reinvention of the "Comtoise" The Pop Up clock is the flagship creation of Philippe Lebru, the visionary founder of the Utinam Manufacture in Besançon, France. By shattering the traditional codes of horology, Lebru has transformed the classic, heavy "Comtoise" grandfather clock into an airy, graphic, and resolutely modern masterpiece. The "Pop Up" concept reflects this sense of weightlessness: the mechanism seems to spring from the wall or floor, liberated from its traditional wooden casing. Its "Skeleton" design offers a full immersion into the heart of the movement, providing a hypnotic spectacle with every beat of the pendulum.
Beyond its futuristic aesthetic, the Pop Up houses a treasure of engineering. It features a patented mechanical movement, which earned the prestigious Grand Prix at the Concours Lépine in Paris.
Autonomy: Designed for daily life, it features a manual winding mechanism with a 7-day power reserve.
Precision: Every component is micrometrically machined within the workshops of Besançon—the historic capital of French watchmaking.
The Experience: The subtle "tick-tock" and the slow, rhythmic swing of the pendulum bring a serene and living presence to any room.
Because every interior is unique, the Pop Up clock is available in a wide array of variations. Whether you choose the Wall-mounted version for a "living art" effect or the Floor-standing model to make a grand architectural statement, it instantly becomes the focal point of your decor.
Innovative Materials: Crafted from high-density composites, stainless steel, or precious woods.
Vibrant Colors: Available in a spectrum ranging from bold "Racing Red" and "Electric Orange" to minimalist "Matte Black" or "Pure White."
