A clock I created with Autocad, an etching laser, and a waterjet. It has LED backlighting with a remote garage battery. Made from junkyard plexiglass, foam, wiring, found LED's, and a battery harness. Painted the head brown with water-based paint because the foam was orange. Solider the harness to an off/on toggle switch.

A "mystery clock" on display as part of the "Jazz Age" exhibit at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.
A "mystery clock" is a timepiece whose hands appear to "float". Such timepieces were fashionable between 1900 and 1940.
This clock was made about 1921 by Cartier, a French jewelry firm established in Paris by Louis-François Cartier (1819–1904) in 1847. In 1916, his grandson, Jacques Cartier, emigrated to the United States and opened a New York City branch of the business on Fifth Avenue.
The actual designer of this timepiece is not known. The creator of the movement is not known. The piece itself is made of gold, platinum, ebonite, citrine, diamonds, and enamel. Ebonite (or Vulcanite) is a very hard artificial resin created by Charles Goodyear in 1844. Citrine is a yellow to brownish-red variety of quartz (the second-most used quartz gemstone after amethyst).
This clock was first owned by Anna Thompson Dodge, wife of automobile manufacturer Horace Dodge.

The ormolu Louis XV style cartel clock from the First Class Lounge of the RMS Olympic. It was originally located at the aft end of the room, on the port side of the curved wall that concealed the No. 3 Funnel casing. On the opposite (starboard) side of the 18' mahogany book case that stood across the centre of the wall, was located a second cartel timepiece in similar Louis XV style. This second timepiece was not a clock but a date indicator.
To the best of current knowledge, it is thought that this area on "Titanic" would have been identical.

The clock on the tower of the owlery in Hogsmeade at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood.
For some reason, the QFC was built with two of these weird clock towers, with this one on the side of the store (back relative to the interior), facing the neighboring park. (The entrance road shown here is a temporary addition due to the construction surrounding the store.) It's probably just me, but the proportions seem way off (too short and squat) on these towers. The time displayed seems reasonable for when I was there, however, so maybe they actually work!

Standing majestically close to the city centre of Chester on Eastgate Street, is the Eastgate clock. Chester's best known land mark and the second most photographed clock in the world after Big Ben. The clock was placed on the Eastgate in 1899 and commemorates Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee of 1897. The wrought-iron was made by John Douglas's cousin James Swindley of Handbridge. This clock is by J. B. Joyce of Whitchurch. Until 1974 it was hand wound once a week.

At the top end of the Cowgate the main thoroughfare through the town of Kirkintilloch lies the Barony Chambers Clock Steeple.
The Category B Listed historic landmark was built between 1814 and 1815 to provide a meeting place for the then Kirkintilloch Town Council , a Court House including two jail cells and a Parish School. Prior to 1806 there was a Tolbooth that once stood on the site
