Global Minute Repeater Market Overview:
A repeater is a complication in a mechanical clock that strikes the hours and often minutes at the push of a button. There are many types of repeaters, from the simple repeater that just tells the number of hours to the minute repeater that times the time down to the minute and uses separate tones for hours, quarters, and minutes. They were created before widespread artificial lighting to determine the time in the dark and were also used by the visually impaired. Today they are mostly valued by watch enthusiasts as expensive innovations. A minute repeater is a mechanical clock that shows the time with conventional hands and strikes the time like a grandfather clock, but with one difference. The minute repeater does not sound automatically at regular intervals, but only on request. When pressed, a button called a slider on the side of a minute repeater starts a mechanism that displays the time. Minute repeaters were developed in England in the 17th and 18th centuries and tell the time in hours, quarters, and minutes, hence their name. Repeaters served a practical purpose of telling time in the dark. If street lights were rare and matches and candles were precious, chimes were a logical solution, but not an easy one.
