What a cool board design, really quite nice to look at. Really unique find here. Thank you! Buddy

Thanks Buddy! The circuit of this clock is really interesting to look at, so I'm glad they went with a transparent case.

Cool clock. Thanks for the view.

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Thanks!

[@Colin_Ames]

Another interesting clock. Thanks for sharing it with us!

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Thanks Colin! I've still got a few more interesting ones to show off too.

It is a cool clock. Pretty involved if it's a Homebrew. Could have been a prototype. Thanks for showing it to us.

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Thanks Steve! It's definitely possible it was a prototype. I did notice that while the board is pretty much a perfect circle, the front and back acrylic pieces are much more crudely cut. Double sided boards (with through plating) are quite a bit harder to produce at home, so maybe the sent out the PCB design to be produced professionally.

That’s an awesome clock ‼️

Thanks Jeff!

It's so beautiful! Just like me! Oh I needed a good laugh. Thank you.
(That's a pretty rare find. Looks like one of 'em computer-people from Buck Rogers 25thC).

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Thanks! It's definitely a rare one, and it does look a bit like a funky robot face of some kind.

Matt - I can't find any 411 on this clock...but didn't have much chance to research...however, I did email you some 411 on another earlier posted clock. Regards. ~Jack, VEG

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Thanks for looking into it Jack! If you couldn't find it, there may not be much out there to find, unfortunately.

I'd guess it might be a one-off that Pete Peterson had made at his work...

[@50sTransistorRadios]

That's quite possible. Hopefully the truth hasn't been lost to time.

Ha ha....

[@Aromal444]

Circuit digram please

[@50sTransistorRadios]

I don't have it, and there's no info online, unfortunately.

[@misterhat5823]

That's a one-off. 99% sure.

[@50sTransistorRadios]

You may be right about that. It's certainly at least very rare.
