Beautiful Time clock sullies up a great design with high-minded pretension

beautiful_time_clock.JPG

This Beautiful Times clock is unique for two reasons. First of all, it's got a pretty cool design, what with the faux-LCD numbers floating above a wooden block. It certainly stands out from other timepieces, tipping its hat to digital clocks from before while bringing its own spin to things.

The other way its unique makes the clock a little less practical and a little more annoying. It only shows "beautiful times." What's that mean? "The categories are mirroring (22:55), repeating (7:07), up- or countdown (12:34 or 5:43) and turning around (6:09). A Beautiful is displayed as long as it takes till the next one." Uh… OK. How about you make one with the same form without the stupid gimmick, OK? I'll be on board with that one.

Dear Adam,
Thanks for posting this work.
It's possible to switch the clock between the beautiful time mode and the normal mode just by pressing a button.

Best regards
