Konstantin Chaykin has realized the idea of a table clock with a face-like dial on paper.
It was meant to coexist with the master's famous Wristmons collection. Disc hour and minute indicators act as «eyes» of the clock. The «smile» is the moonphase indicator which hides the tourbillon's work. Watchmaking connoisseurs know that this part never stops moving, it is designed to show all the spectre of colourful emotions on the Wristmon's playful «face».
According to the author's concept, the table version of the Wristmon should be empowered by additional functions: day-of-the-week indicator, month, date, leap year indicators.
