Classic wood and brass dial, with two time scales. The rope that is stretched between base and cover throws it shadow on the hour when fully 90º upright. Actually sundials like this
were used to set time on mechanical watches. The sun is always right, and shows the real local hour. This sundial was the 18th C functioning pocket watch, in day light time of course.
