The geek in me loves this. I'm a huge fan of decorative wall clocks, but this would look great sitting next to my computer desk. Thanks for the post, I'll have to try my hand at this.

Nice to see someone using a good quality German U.T.S. (Uhrentechnik-Schwarzwald) movement (*) instead those crappy Chinese junk (well the Chinese can make quality if they want to but they're rare).

It seems it's the high torge version (they have green setting knobs where as the standard ones have black). It's overkill and not necessary for those size of hands. Not that it's very important but the standard version is a bit quieter.

(*) While it's made by UTS it can be branded. In Europe they are typically branded by Junghans and Hermle. But really they're no different than the standard UTS movement.

Nice. It's really good when you
turn "junk" into something new
& useful. I made a similar ible but
its not a wall clock. =)

I made something similiar a few years ago using an trashed harddrive, this is true recycling at its best :)

Simple but functional, may be more nice if you cut straight the below part.
