The Liverpool 1911 Edition watch from the exquisite SHAREHOLDER range was created to pay homage to the historic opulence of the lovely city of Liverpool where the brand was originally conceived.
Surprisingly Big Ben isn’t the largest clock face in UK, the honour goes to the clock faces located at the Royal Liver Building. It was the tallest building in Europe from 1911 till 1932 and the tallest in Britain until 1960.
The building is crowned by a pair of clock towers; as a ship passed along the river, mariners could tell the time from these. The clocks were made by Gent and Co. of Leicester whose electric timepieces were on display in railway stations all over the world.
The clock faces are 25 feet or 7.6 metres in diameter and the clocks were started on 22nd June 1911 at 1.40pm, the precise time George V was crowned.
Specially designed in Liverpool,UK by highly experienced craftsmen, in co-operation with several state-of-the-art design houses in Switzerland, this luxury timepiece is made of the best quality material including a stainless steel 316L case, sapphire anti-reflective crystal glass, and comes fully equipped with a fully reliable JS25 tested movement. With its sophisticated details and high accuracy, this timepiece is assembled for absolute durability and made exclusively to pay homage to Liverpool city.
