So cool.  So vintage.  So unique!
[[VIDEOID:b2a5d2104c246cb97ac26ce604436f05]] First of all, this is just such a cool retro, vintage clock, with new technology.  Such a great combo.  Some people have said that it is small.  Well, it is small.  It uses scientific tubes for the clock.  And as for a desk clock, I haven’t seen many HUGE clocks.  This is the perfect size for a desk, a shelf, the counter, wherever it can be seen.  And it SHOULD be seen.  Every single person that has come over says the same thing “That is so cool!  I have never seen anything like that!”.  Yes, it is cool.  First off, it was wrapped like it was going in to space.  A wonderful wooden box, and the clock was set in layers and layers of soft foam to protect it.  Take it out, read the directions, and boom…it’s shining bright and telling the time.  You have several options in how it displays.  I love the “slot machine” style when it changes from the time to the date, back to the time.  12/24 hour time is also an option.  How do you change it when there is no screen you ask?  Read the directions and follow the number of times you click.  Each click is a different mode you are changing.  Once you get it down, it’s easy.  If you unplug it and move it, it keeps the time that you entered.  This is such a conversation piece.  Yes, it would be great if there was a big one, but scientists didn’t use huge tubes back then.  There are some out there that “simulate” a nixie clock, but there is just something so cool from looking at the tubes and seeing all of the wires doing their magic.  It is so neat to sit and wait for it to change time and see the numbers “shuffle” to the next.  This clock even has a motion sensor in it, so when there is no one around, it shuts off and turns right back on when someone enters the room.  This prolongs the Nixie tubes lifespan!  Kids absolutely love it, as well as adults.  It makes such a great addition to any room and would make a fantastic gift (especially for Christmas!) for anyone!  Especially those like myself who love retro and science.  Fantastic!!!!
