This flip clock makes a subtle flipping sound.
Unlike the regular analog and digital clock, the action of flipping makes us realize how quickly time is passing by. The mind works in such a way that when the change is more visible and physical, it sends a higher priority signal of attention to the consciousness.
In our household, there is no 'tick tock tick tock', it's simply 'flip flip flip'.

In the restaurant Zur Hauptache in Rendsburg. Know nothing about the clock but the lettering is terrific. Clock keeps accurate time too.

Stained glass mosaic clock on a recycled glass piece that was part of a light fixture in its previous life.
Glass is shaded from pale bright green to black and, to compliment this, a special grouting technique was used that also shades from pale green to deep green/black.
