A knitting clock.

Marking the passage of time with a clock that knits a scarf?? Oh, Design Milk, you minx. You just made my day.

MUJI Station Clock

Oh, Muji, you minx. I wish I knew how to quit you. Every time you start to bore me silly, you turn around and come up with something perfect and simple like this.


Inspired by the design of traditional railway station clocks in Japan, the familiar face makes it easy to read.

Canvasworks clock.

Love this concept.




Form meets function in this canvas scene clock by Noto-Fusai.

A functioning clock is embedded in scenes from real life, either as a clock in a park or in a street scene, providing a new, more decorative way to tell time.

Printed on actual canvas.

Cyclops watch.

I don't wear a watch, but, if I did, it'd be a Mr Jones watch. This is a new one.

Black & White Clock.

Only a prototype. Sigh.




Digital clock: only figures, no case, only the necessary – only accurate time. Each figure has self-contained power supply and independent control, it can be fixed to any surface autonomously. A light sensor will switch the clock to an invert mode: the figures are white in the dark time of day and black at daytime.

Diamantini & Domeniconi Striped Cuckoo Clock.

I would like one of these. So birdy and stripey and happy.


Designed in Italy from the famous clock manufacturers Diamantini and Domeniconi this is their latest design Cuckoo Clock. The Cuckoo Clock is hand made using coloured resin in fabulous stripes. It reminds me of the Paul Smith stripe design.

Water-Powered Clock.

Aww. Cute.


How does it work? Magic mostly. And a little bit of science too. The internal converter simply extracts electrons from water (or other liquid) molecules and provides a steady stream of electrical current acting as a fuel cell to generate power to the clock.

Grandfather Clock.

A fully-functional canvas Grandfather Clock. Sweet.
(I wonder if it chimes the hours?)

bird house lamp.

I can't condone the price of this ($325!), but I absolutely LOVE the idea. It would be a great DIY project. (Just have to figure out how to fireproof it.)

Flip Clock.

Love this clock, but the giant logo on the front was a bad choice.

Clock + type = cool screensaver.

Love it.


Word Clock is a typographic screensaver for Mac OS X. It displays a fixed list of all numbers and words sufficient to express any possible date and time as a sentence. Word Clock displays time by highlighting appropriate words as each second passes.

SnūzNLūz - Wifi Donation Alarm Clock

Connects via WiFi to your online bank account, and donates YOUR real money to an organization you HATE when you decide to snooze.

I hate to say it, but it would probably work...

Pascale Judet clocks.

I bought one of these as a present for my boyfriend years ago. Such a simple idea and really fun. They make great, unique gifts.
