I love reading about John Harrison's watch and clock designs. His tower clock in Brockelsby Park (Lincolnshire, England) "has been running continuously for more than 270 years - except for a brief period in 1884 when workers stopped it for refurbishing." Add 21 more years to this clock's continuous service now. It was and remains very accurate, and runs without lubrication required. Wow!!
