Thank you for this. It is wonderfull to see inventors and their invention come to life. The inventors have a different expression on their faces, then the nobility. As if one can see their genius mind in their eyes. This is a big legacy for the ingenieurs.

What about clocks? I don't even remember these old smart watches. They don't seem so smart anymore. 😂🎭

[@panagiotisconstantinou]

Clocks are bigger usually hanged on walls or on clocktowers, watches are smaller and portable.

[@HarleyQwynn2013]

@@panagiotisconstantinou I never think to look up for the time anymore. As they were explaining watches, I thought to myself, "How did they tell time before 1969?" Completely forgot about clocks! ⏰ Will you follow up with clocks? Who decided what time it was to begin with?🤷🏽‍♀️🎭
