In all external design of the clock are used touches and parts, designed to remind of Judaism. Silver dial is in contrast to the gilded hour indices and graceful in form with blue hands, the color of which symbolizes compassion and spiritual Jerusalem. Time marks are alternated with golden letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Kabbalistic themes are used to create an exclusive mechanism TSB 01-1 - one-minute tourbillon is shaped like Stars of David. The unique mechanism of 120x150x47,5 mm in size consists of 440 components and hand-polished. The mechanism is complicated with function of the "Sabbath" (the patented device of the additional winding inclusion) and has a calendar that displays the date, day of week and month on the calendar of the Jews.
