The figurines are positioned onto a baseplate, and fixed using various types of attachments. They are placed at an angle in order for whoever owns this thing to be able to see link as much surface area as possible – and also to ensure that each component stays truly three-dimensional. The Smiley itself is assembled on a decorative rainbow-varnished bridge, lending the impression that it floats above the movement, like a benevolent heavenly body smiling down upon the watchmaker's work.
