Michael Daniel Flip Clock

Came across this oddity on the bay, I think this may have been the same model used in the film “Knives Out”. Either way, interesting!

I have heard that these are fairly unreliable so beware.

it does look interesting indeed although I would build a case around it... Having an exposed flipclock is the stuff of my nightmares, just think of all the dust it would be gathering!

Never heard of "Michael Daniel" or his association with this clock - or it's possible movie connection. Thanks for the report!
I'm still wanting the one similar to this that appeared in the Green Lantern.

FYI: One of those Green Lantern ones came through ebay back in January, Listing title was "Kikkerland Flip Clock retro desk clock with bubble numbers". If that helps the search.

It's on the high side of price as well. I'd only pay that much for a battery operated flip-clock if it were a Copal or tuning fork movement or something else special.

Priced way too high indeed. Can buy this clock new for 95 euro here (no mention of Michael Daniel though, but it looks like the same clock):
