While some of you might firmly put this clock into the ‘for-science-type-kids’ folder, I think it could work in a less-serious/non-stuffy modern interior…so anyways, here’s the main question, if this other clock is the same one, then why the big price difference? The hands look a tiny bit different, and the ‘brushed silver’ frame of course, but as far as the face and size it’s the same. (Can you tell I get annoyed when there are price discrepancies?)

Debate the classification of planets while being punctual…The black face is silk screened with planetary bodies and their orbits, all centered around the sun.

If you need to keep track of all 24 time zones all the time, maybe this is something that would help…but, keep in mind, it’s from the UK, so if you’re somewhere else you’ll have to mess with power cord/adapter issues.

Does this clock have way too much going on or not enough? Or is it ‘just right’?

This mesmerizing clock is not as timeless as its name implies. Look closely and the numbers 3, 6, 9, and 12 will give you a good idea of the hour. But, based on aesthetics alone, the name may just be appropriate after all.

Some trends come and go, but it’s a pretty sure bet cuckoo clocks are here to stay. This white one has some great detailing that’s sure to add some character to whatever room you put it in.

“This modern cuckoo clock is artfully detailed in white washed wood and comes complete with stag head decoration, pine cone weights, swinging pendulum, and a cucoo bird that emerges on the hour to flap its wings and make its call. This nostalgic remake is quartz battery powered with an on/off option for the electronic cuckoo call. A charming tribute to its European origins. Uses 2 D batteries (not included).”

Huh? I can’t decide if this is good or bad, but it does leave room for ideas on making your own…

Natural birch and hand-colored in white.”

This little birdhouse cuckoo clock houses a cuckoo who announces the time every hour, unless it’s dark out–thanks to a light sensor.
