    Pin Clock

    I found this Pin Clock and bought it out of curiosity (and because it was at a bargain price ).

    It shows the time by pins that are pushed in/out to form a 7-segment display. I was planning to take it apart to show it to you, but luckily I don't need to, since this guy already made a detailed video on it :



    I find it a fun novelty item but I'm not so sure I will keep it since it is rather noisy.

    I really do like other ways of telling time. I had to stop going down that road because it's never ending. I will still be keeping the ones I have though (like the Köhler dash clock, my Lux "tape measure clock" and my Elgin drum clock).

    I'm not one for travelling, but If I could, I'd love to see the town of Pesariis, the Italian clock town.

      Thanks, I have added Pesariis to my wishlist of places to visit! I live in the Netherlands, so it is not unlikely that one day I will travel to Italy and could make Pesariis part of my intinerary.
