Wall Gear Clock Provides Mechanical Eye Candy

I’m a sucker for watches or clocks with lots of moving, visible parts so needless to say I find this one pretty cool. Designed by Wil Van Den Bos all of the gears on the ‘Wall Gear Clock’ are exposed and slowly (and quietly) turn as time ticks by.

And instead of using a face with moving hands the clock uses one large gear (over 22 inches wide) labeled with the hours that slowly rotates past a stationary arrow to indicate what time it is.

Unfortunately though it seems we’re a bit late to the party since the clock is currently sold out. But if you’re willing to wait until the 3rd or 4th week of June you can pre-order one for about $150.

    This looks cool, but it's actually kind of stupid from a functional aestheticism perspective. My friend has one and the gears are purely decorative--they don't actually turn the clock. There's one motor that turns the clock and another that turns the gears.
