This clock, inside in the north transept, has been telling the time in Wells Cathedral (Somerset, England) since around 1390. The second oldest original working clock in the world, and the oldest with its original dials. (That and following information pp notice displayed with the clock.)
It shows hours and minutes, and the number of days since a new moon.
Above the dial, there is a group of figures which spins around on the quarter hour. As it spins, a knight is unhorsed by a lance. He is merely 600 years old. I presume the first one wore out!

"spun" off from my motherboard clock, I decided to turn an old hard drive into a clock too. It originally had two disks, but the clock wouldn't have fit, so I just used one. It's on my wall next to my motherboard clock; the original idea was to "connect" them via an ide cable, but the plug on this is no longer there...
A real favorite, they are available in the colors you see here as well as yellow.
They measure 1 1/2" across.
Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks...

The clock tower, located at the centre of Mudgee, is a distinctive feature of the regional town.
On our first night in Mudgee, I captured an upward view of the clock tower during the evening twilight.

Horology is the art or science of measuring time. People interested in horology are called horologists. That term is used both by people who deal professionally with timekeeping apparatus (watchmakers, clockmakers), as well as aficionados and scholars of horology. For more info, check the wiki.
I took this for Kaptain Kobold's choice at We're Here, Teach Me Something New. And since gears are just wheels with teeth, it suits the December 6 topic at december 2011 in photos, Wheels! Yay.
