The fifth design in the “British Inventors and Scientists” collection is a tribute to Alan Turing. Mathematician, cryptanalyst, logician, pioneer in computer science, Alan Turing has played a key role in the development of computers, and the concept of algorithm.

Decipher is a tribute to the genius of Alan Turing, who contributed to find the key to crack enemies codes during World War II, by developing the Bombe, a machine with over 100 drums, and cables intricately wired.
