CLOCKS!
Happy saturday afternoon friends. I’m curious to learn about everyone else’s clocks, timers, etc. that can’t be worn on a wrist. This is a cuckoo clock which my parents purchased in the Black Forest region of Germany as a wedding gift for my wife and I. I painted the tips of the hands white for better visibility. The ‘tick-tock’ sound I find really relaxing and reminds me of sleeping on the couch in my grandparents living room… please post pictures below! :)
PS- I’m interested if anybody has good recommendations for a tritium or other type of clock which doesn’t need daylight to glow for my bedroom to check the time in the middle of the night… yes I’m aware digital clocks exist 😄
Cheers!

Russian clock that was apparently fitted in Mig jets.
I have the JLC but at the moment it has decided it doesnt want to work and i am having a heck of time finding someone to work on it...
This is one of my favorite cheap clocks, designed to look like a melting clock from a Dali painting (with a Dali print visible just behind it)
Converted a Mach meter from a 60s jet into a clock
I bought this at the Windup Watch Fair last October. It does the Stop2Go Swiss railroad clock thing.
