About this list:

Okay, I'm weird. I love clocks for some reason... just do, don't ask me why. They come in such a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors, materials, etc. that I never get tired of seeing what comes along next. I have a collection that is beginning to get seriously out of control.

Unfinished Clock

First to recommend

Description

Another one for my clock list. Found this at the MoMa store online... pretty darn cool! It's designed for displaying on the edge of a shelf or mantel so that it looks like only the top half of a clock, but the hands still rotate all the way around. And only $46 to boot... $41 for members. Powder-coated steel with aluminum hands, one AA battery included. (via MoMA store)

Daze Wall Clock

2 people recommended this item

Description

Simple typographic solution but I like it. And at 24" in diameter it will definitely make a statement. Has a retro feel like something Saul Bass or Herb Lubalin ( U&lc magazine ) would've done back in the day.
