Years ago, my father (who loves clocks) gave me a small Lexon alarm clock (side note: Lexon makes incredilby cool looking clocks). A couple of months ago, the second hand fell off. I mentioned this to my father, and he convinced me that repairing it would be straight-forward - and he was right. The only tricky thing was making sure that the alarm hand matched up with the time, but I worked that out.
My girlfriend was given a collection of clock parts. I can't wait to get started on a steam punk project!
A small strip mall was built near me about ten years ago. The "tower" isn't much of a tower, but there is a clock that used to tell the correct time. Neither it nor the one on the sign was correct when I went past them today.
For the All New Scavenger Hunt challenge; four different clocks.
The inner workings of an antique Waterbury Clock Company mantel clock from the late 1890s-early 1900s.
I bought this clock radio at a yard sale, but the two knobs that adjust the clock are missing. If you have a photo of this clock with the knobs intact, or know where I can get replacement knobs, let me know!
Bought a PCB from Gary Kaufman via Mike Harrison's web site and put it together with some Hivac XN11 nixie tubes.

Now, just to find/build a suitable case for it.....
This Centennial Clock, and a lot that look very similar to this one, are a modern replica of the clocks that could be found on street corners of yesteryear. They were placed throughout the state to celebrate the Oklahoma Centennial. This clock is located in downtown Broken Arrow.
I had this old clock case, an 8-day movement and some other bits and put them together. Mystery surrounds the 'CALEDONIAN REGISTERED' movements, possibly made in Birmingham around 1880. I thought it looked nice and deserved to be seen.

I used an old Canon optical image stabilizer lens [EF-S 17-85mm 1:4-5.6 IS USM] on an EOS 450D DSLR. With exposures of up to a 1/4 of a second, most of the images had to be discarded, and the remainder are very "grainy" / "noisy", but the pictures at least form a sort of record of the event...

An inside look at the clock tower in Bangor, PA. The antique four-faced clock was manufactured by the E. Howard Clock Co. of Boston, Massachusetts, and was installed in the borough hall in 1907. In addition to being Bangor’s timepiece, the clock chimed a coded ring to alert the borough fire department as to the location of the fire. They also used the tower to hang the fire hoses after a fire to dry.
After a period of neglect when the chimes fell silent, the Slate Belt Heritage Center, under the guidance and care of Jay Albert, brought the historic clock back to life again in early 2000. The help of a generous personal donation helped Jay to single-handedly restore the faces. The clock mechanism was restored by David Morgan, former president of the Worldwide Clock Towers Association.

This very tall and imposing clock sits in the center of downtown Dubuque. The clock, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, has stood over the city for over 130 years. The present clock is actually the second Town Clock for Dubuque, replacing an earlier one which collapsed in the 1870s.
The Town Clock blends well with the other old architecture of the city, giving it a distinctive charm which we found delightful.
A small traffic circle takes vehicles around the clock and the encircling Town Clock Plaza. The Plaza is a popular venue for concerts and other special community events.
Clock bits. Thank you to Bill of Clockworks in Hartlepool for letting me photograph in his workshop.

Urban exploration (UrbEx) isn't something I typically do a lot of, but a close friend invited me to come along with him once, and I decided to give it a try. It was definitely an interesting and exciting experience, and made for some fantastic photo opportunities. Not sure if this is something I'd do often, but it was fun and unique!
The location is an abandoned hospital in rural Pennsylvania, which has only been vacant a few years, but the damage inflicted by vandals, vagrants, and scrappers has taken a considerable toll on building's integrity. Combined with fire and weather damage, it looks like it's been abandoned for decades, rather than years, and it's undeniably spooky inside.
This clock will never tick again.
