Designed to reinvent our experience with time. Innovation draws on the calming beauty of building light patterns, removing the need for traditional rotating hands.
The Tempus Aviator merges aerospace-inspired engineering with luxury automotive craftsmanship to create a functional work of art.
Its form draws directly from the mechanical sophistication of jet engines, reinterpreted through the refined materials and tactile finishes of high-performance vehicle interiors.
A marbled black-and-gold glass fascia introduces warmth and familiarity, balancing the clock’s precision-engineered profile with an interior-friendly aesthetic.
As a centrepiece, it stands at the intersection of machine, movement, and modern art.
Mounted on 2 sections of the infamous “Wooden Plank” normally hidden from sight but critical to keeping the car’s legal. Oil stained to give a rich mahogany colour to hint towards the modern interpretation of a grandfather clock.
The plank is functionally decorated in a plethora of exotic F1 components which includes suspension rockers, springs and steering links. Stabilised by parts from the team’s factory test rig, this clock base is simply one of a kind.
"Designed for motion. Built for refinement.”
