- Note
- "These clocks were a unique Japanese invention which simply told time on a linear scale as the weight descended. Many versions exist of this type of clock, which were made throughout the Tokugawa period. The earlier ones first used the foliot, then the pendulum and finally the balance wheel. The principle is the same in all the various types of shaku-dokei. " - https://wadokei.org/wadokei-types/shaku-dokei/, 31.05.2020
