The Colgate Clock - the Largest in the World

The Colgate Clock is not in NYC but is located in Jersey City. The Colgate Clock is readily visible from lower Manhattan. At 50 feet in diameter (15-plus metres), the current clock is claimed to be the largest in the world. It is a replacement for original clock (38 feet in diameter) from 1904. The octagonal design was based on Colgate's Octagon Soap.

 

The Clock was seen from a Circle Line boat.
