VERY Well-Made
I ordered this because I'm old enough to remember Nixie tubes (and the Beatles and the Moon landings etc . . .) and I wanted a novelty clock.  But this thing is a real work of art.  The case is a beautiful toasted wood and the overall layout is simple and elegant.  The single control button on the back allows easy access to the many options for the display and supplemental LED lighting.  Even the wooden box it came in was so nice that I kept it for storing other stuff.<br /><br />It's from the Ukraine.  I paid some additional $$$ to get it here quicker than 30 days and it arrived just fine in about a week.  Ukraine, Russia and a couple of other former USSR states are only places making Nixie tubes anymore - and my favorite guitar amp tubes - and they seem to know what they're doing.<br /><br />When I plugged it in it instantly came up with my local time to the minute.  To lengthen the tubes' lives it has an option to activate a motion detector to start it up when someone enters the room.  This feature works great and I can't sneak up on it at all.  I also can't figure out where the motion sensor is!<br /><br />I highly recommend this in terms of both form and function.
