Christian Klings Scans
As I inadvertently disclosed in trying to post a “teaser” scan last week (serves me right!), I am nearing the final stages of taking possession of a creation from Christian Klings. There were many reasons behind my desire to work with Christian on this project (well, he really did all of the work I suppose), not the least of which is the fact that his timepieces are truly born of his own 2 hands.
I’ll post more scans in the coming days, but for the time being, I thought these were worth a look.
Hope you enjoy them.
