The tower was built in 1878, and is all that remains of the drill hall of the former Sapporo Agricultural College (now Hokkaido University). The building was one of the earliest to be built in this city. The city itself was chosen as the administrative centre of Hokkaidō in 1868, which is the date currently recognised as the official birth of the city.
Currently, this is the oldest building standing in Sapporo. The clock was installed in July 1881 by E. Howard and Co. (headed by a co-founder of what would eventually become the Waltham Watch Company) of Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

My father bought this clock as a gift to my mother and had a plaque made with an inscription of his love for her. Unfortunately, it was near the time when she was diagnosed with cancer. They new her time was limited, and this clock, with it's inscription, was special to her.
Some time after she passed away, my sister came to be the owner of the clock, and by then my father had also died. My sister had a new plaque made, with the message: "In loving memory of Tom and Barbara Higgins" .

Chronulator 2.0 clock. built inside a custom stained cigar box. the wires are from an old pinball machine. I had purchased the old score wheels off ebay and it came with a bunch of old, cloth insulated wires attached to it. so I striped a few off. gives it that nice old look. better than the look of the new red and black wires.
