Since the birth of horology, clock and watch makers have attempted to recreate the heavens in their creation. Astronomy and horology have always been linked and in fact a show and free book at Salon QP 2013 covered this subject beautifully: https://www.hautehorlogerie.org/en/the-foundation/events-exhibitions/s/salonqp-2013/https://www.hautehorlogerie.org/en/the-foundation/events-exhibitions/s/salonqp-2013/
I've always wanted to know more and have found this free introduction course to astronomy which seems really interesting although beware, it has quite a bit of physics and maths.
