The left bank has its famous flower clock, but the right bank, since 1997, has been able to match it with a monumental solar and laser clock on the Quai Wilson, near the Perle du Lac. The work of the Hungarian artist Klara Kuchta, the clock has a face which is 6.40 meters in diameter. Constructed of stainless steel and laminated glass, 198 stars show, while a beam of optical fibres makes them shine on a celestial map. The clock combines Swiss tradition with high technology, bringing together the sun and the laser.
