Navaris24 Hour Analogue Wall Clock - 24 Hour Unusual Quirky Wall Clock with 24hr Analogue Display and Smooth Movement - Silver with Black Face

24 hours is really practical, really helps you keep perspective of where you are in the day.At a glance you can see how long since you got up relative to how long you've got left in the day relative to how long before you need to get up again, etc. Night time is at the top, daytime is at the bottom. It makes so much more sense than a 12h clock, i've no idea why we've not been using these all along. Fantastic piece of kit.Quiet in operation. (Unlike other 12h ones i'd tried where you could hear them ticking, which can get really irritating in a quiet room. This one i can't hear it at all even in a quiet room.)

I am impressed with the silent and flowing movement mechanism in this clock. The 24 hour display is the only and the most sensible way to keep track of time. The hour hand always points to the position of the sun day or night. If you imagine that at 12 o' clock mid-day the sun is due south and correspondingly at 24-00 midnight it is due north (where it can't be seen). Therefore approximately speaking the sun will be rising at about 6 o'clock (east) and setting at about 18 -00 (west), of course you have to account for the time of the year. This type of clock can be a useful astronomical/navigational aid.There is more to this clock than meets the eye.

Who knows why some of us might like to see the whole day on one clock.. It, certainly, doesn't fit with the currently dominant paradigm. Time, after all, stops and starts again every twelve hours. I'm being sarcastic. Though I am yet to do what I want to do (make and print out a twenty four hour coloured clock face so I can see, at a glance and without having to open up the Outlook Calendars, if the time is on me that I should be doing something for the optimal life experience) - I have had a quick look and it seems absolutely feasible. There are screws. It's really basic. It's lovely and basic. Highly adaptable. Somebody that wants something already perfect, for their needs, might want to consider something else. I have my own functional hands and fingers. I have access to colours. This is fine for me.Since putting the battery in, months ago when I bought it, it hasn't lost any time. It's accurate. Not, in its vanilla form, that easy to read (all a bit dark) but (like I said) I'm going to make my own clock face. That way it will be obvious when I'm in the period of least resistance for any of the daily things I need to do. I know how to make a 24 hour pie chart (48 half hour pie chart ;)) - it should be simply a case of making a hole, at the centre of my pie chart, taking the clock apart (should not be too complex - there are screws) and gluing my pie chart over the existing clock face. Might do that today, actually, as I have managed to make myself excited. I might upload a photo when it's done and, if I encounter thermoplastic seals, I'll let you know.Does it tick? No - that's the one in the kitchen I can hear.Edit: I wanted to show that its easy to take the clock apart and prit stick a print out of a pie chart (this circle was 16.5 cm) onto the face (seems to be plastic rather than paper - good as I might want to change the pie chart at some point). Not letting the perfect be the enemy of good - here's how (minus the bit about how to work with pie charts in Excel - figure that out yourself, please!). Pie chart in Excel. Copy and paste it as new image in graphics program. Crop the image to contain only the circular part. Resize the image to whatever you like (16.5 cm seemed to be just right but a smaller one may look more centralised (with those one digit numbers up the right hand side). Print it out (mine is two printouts stuck together). Carefully, with scissors, cut the circle out. Lay it down. Get a metal ruler and a razor blade. Cut the thing, as precisely as possible, in half using one of the radial lines as a guide (mine was 12 - 24). Put the two halfs exactly together. Cut out the tiny circle in the middle (where the post for the clock hands is) and check that the two pieces will fit together on the clock face. Glue the backs of the two halves of the pie chart, slither them in under the hands, check they are abutting and in the right place and gentle press the chart down.It's pretty self explanatory, really, but I hope the sizing is useful as is the realisation that taking the hands off isn't at all necessary (I was puzzling this over for ages before I realised I could just cut my chart in half).I'm sorely tempted to get the black and white version and do this in the bedroom, too. Delightfully easy.

Cheap materials, where are the fancy ones of these!?

I just think it's neat, smooth mechanism and is basically silent, making it a great option for the bedroom. shiny hands reflect just enough light for me to tell the time when i dont have my glasses on

I have ADHD and this has been an absolute game changer for time blindness. You can see the whole day ahead of you so it’s amazing for perspective. I’ve seen in one of the other reviews someone has added zones to show what they should be doing when and I’m definitely going to do the same. I’ve bought a second one…why theses aren’t more widely used for ADHD I don’t know!! Super.

Absolutely love this clock!24h is the only way to go once you leave primary school!This clock is in my workshop and catches so many people out. First thoughts are your clock is wrong, then it sinks in and then it's a moment to figure out the actual time. It's brilliant!It does take a while of getting used too after being used to 12h clocks but after a few days it's so simple & clear, I don't want another 12h clock ever again.It's silent which is great for quiet places, my workshop isn't quiet so that doesn't really matter to me but it's certainly nice.It would be nice to have an option of a white face but the black stands out and says 'I'm different' from the outset and more of a statement piece.Did I say it's brilliant?! Will certainly get more if the need arises.

great fun and something different
