For countless millennia, sundials were the most accurate way of keeping time. But this was the beginning of Huygens' work on pendulum clocks. Within just a few years, clockmakers in the Netherlands and England were able to keep the Precision is secondary to reliability for a marine chronometer. That isn t the case however in a high-precision pendulum wall clock, and while it s less known, before he started developing a marine chronometer to win the Longitude Prize, Harrison was already extremely good at developing high-precision pendulum wall clocks that only have temperature variations to contend with rather than During the construction of clock No. 4, while studying the intrigue of double pendulum resonance clocks, Buchanan became aware of Abraham Louis Breguet s Clock No. 3671, a double pendulum regulator owned the Queen of England and part of English Royal Collection. provided with three pendulum clocks.
