a particular artistic style characterized by delicacy and compactness, which is carved by knife. It
is invisible to the naked eye when the artist is carving, so it is completed solely rely on the
artist’s feeling and experience. The appearance of micro-carved treasure watches was to
enable more people to know this workmanship which is on the edge of extinction, to let more
people marvel at its miracle and to activate more people to inherit it. The artist's gifts are at
their acme on each article, they combine the micro-carving technique with advanced watch

designs. Generally, the micro-carving articles are mainly made from ivory tusks of the woolly
mammoths, jades, and K gold.
钱币是人类历史长河中经济发展的见证，把古钱币与时间的载体“钟表”艺术地结合，则是一种走近历史的方式，让现代人穿越时空的阻隔。 中国是世界上最早发明计时仪器的国家，宋元佑三年（公元1088年），身为宰相和科学家的苏颂，主持建成了被外国人称为“世界上第一台机械钟”的水运仪象台。它吸取各家机械结构之长，采用民间水车、筒车，以及桔槔、凸轮、天平秤杆等机械原理，是集观测、演示和报时为一体的自动化天文台，精确度已达到误差每日一秒，更因为采用了早期的擒纵机构，成为机械钟的祖先。而这一伟大的发明，比欧洲的机械钟早600多年！ 钱币形式的外圆内方，在秦始皇统一中国时(公元前221年)开始，当时以半两为货币单位，重如其文；钱体厚重，外圆内方，取天圆地方之意；钱文隆起而雄伟，半两的“两”字中“人”字高耸。秦半两的出现令“圆形方孔”钱币成为中国货币的基础，这种币形一直沿用了两千多年，是中国货币发展过程中的一个里程碑，古钱币手表，因为古代铸币方法的限制，每一枚都绝不相同，具有非凡的纪念价值和历史意义。
The coin witnesses the economic development of the history of human beings, and artistically
combining the ancient coin with clock (carrier of time) is a way to approach history. The time
instrument was first invented in China. In Year 1088, Su Song, as prime minister and scientist,
directed the research and manufacture of the water-driven astronomical clock tower, which was called “the first mechanical clock in the world” by foreigners then. It absorbed the merits of different mechanical structures, applied the mechanic principles of folk waterwheel, barrel car, as well as shaduf, cam, and balance weigh beam, and thus was an automatic observatory, which had the multi function of observation, demonstration and time giving, and it gained or lost no more than one second per day. It was the ancestor of the mechanical clocks, since
it used the escapement technique. This great invention appeared more than 600 years
earlier than the European mechanical clock. The coin shape of circular edge and square orifice
has being into use since 221 B.C. when Qin Shi Huang unified China. During that period,
Half-liang was a unit of currency, the coin was thick, with a shape of round outside and square
inside, reflecting the round sky and square earth; the characters were grand and in relief. The
advent of Half-liang money in Qin State has made the “circular edge square orifice” coin the
foundation of China’s currency, and is a milestone in the development process of China's
monetary development. This kind of coin shape has been continuously used for more than
2,000 years. Each ancient coin watch differs from others because of the restriction of the old
coin making method. And thus, the ancient coin watches have extraordinary commemorate
value and historical significance.
