Clockwork

The guts of an old 10-jewel wristwatch, just about the size of a nickel.

 

I have always loved clockwork -- one of my favorite possessions is my grandmother's antique 17-jewel pocketwatch -- and had to buy one of the old clockwork pieces I saw in the flea market bin. It's missing several of its movements, but it just looks so neat...

 

(Edit: Since a couple of friends asked for it, I've done a version as a desktop wallpaper.)
