Giant art deco clock above the New Yorker building near Wenceslas Square in Prague. The rooftop next door has a sculpture of 2 men holding a sign related to the Viennese Bank Union.
The clock tower tops the building, the Carbon County courthouse, which is made of native stone. It is located in the center of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania. The Jim Thorpe area is refered to as "the Switzerland of America".
The Clock Tower and Big Ben. I think its the colour reflected in the water and the details of the bridge that make it.

The Fairfield State Hospital is a huge place that was built 1933 to house the insane patients overflowing from two other state hospitals in Connecticut. The place is as big as a Ive League School. I am not sure but it must be over a hundred acres and dozens of buildings and houses.
This is a clock tower on one of the buildings. I do not think it was working but it is interesting.
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'.

My parents' grandfather clock. Movement made in Germany, case built in Hong Kong, c. 1987. This was purchased in 1988 off a relative who had ordered this clock but received the wrong finish.
Had to be done - all my other scavenger hunt photos this month are selfies so I decided to take another 'clock' photo. There is a very bemused cleaner bloke at my work this morning!
Think I'll use this for PAD too unless I get any time to take anything else :-)

most clock towers are very tall and so is this one - this clock tower belongs to the Maritime Museum of Townsville which is just across the creek from the marina I am staying in for a couple of nights. I had to zoom right in to get this night image of the clock tower. i did use a long exposure.

The inside of our old wind up clock. I tried to get the pendulum swinging too, couldn't quite get the effect I was after (the pendulum is too dark for one thing). It hasn't been working for a few weeks, but after a tweak has started again - anyone see what's missing?
In the restaurant Zur Hauptache in Rendsburg. Know nothing about the clock but the lettering is terrific. Clock keeps accurate time too.
Sudbury Hall is a country house in Sudbury, Derbyshire, England.
Sudbury Hall is one the country's finest Restoration mansions and has Grade I listed building status.
The Vernon family came to Sudbury as a result of the 16th century marriage of Sir John Vernon to Ellen Montgomery the Sudbury heiress. The house was built between 1660 and 1680 by George Vernon, grandfather of George Venables-Vernon the 1st Baron Vernon and is notable for its superb Great Staircase, fine Long Gallery, and portraits by John Michael Wright, and of Charles II's mistresses. Inside there are a mixture of architectural styles with beautiful carvings by Grinling Gibbons and Edward Pearce, murals by Louis Laguerre and elaborate plasterwork by Samuel Mansfield, James Pettifer and Robery Bradbury. The carvings above the main entrance porch were sculpted by William Wilson. There are formal gardens with a tree-fringed lake.
The house was also used as the internal Pemberley scenes in the BBC dramatisation (1995) of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
The property was leased for three years from 1840 by Queen Adelaide, the widow of William IV of the United Kingdom. It is now owned and maintained by the National Trust.[1] to whom it was gifted by the Vernon family in 1967.
