The Church of England parish church of Saint Swithun is Decorated Gothic, built early in the 14th century. It has a south aisle, linked with the nave by an arcade of four bays. Late in the 15th century the Perpendicular Gothic clerestory was added to the nave. The chancel windows and one window in the south aisle are also Perpendicular Gothic. The font is much older than the church, dating from late in the 12th century. St. Swithun's had a north aisle but it was demolished in the 15th or 16th century. Its arcade of three bays was blocked up and remains in the north wall of the nave. The tower had a spire but it became unsafe and in 1796 it was removed. St. Swithun's most notable monuments are wall-mounted ones in the chancel commemorating John Doyley (died 1593) and his wife, Elizabeth Poole (died 1621) and Richard Harrington (died 1712). The Poole monument has strapwork and Tuscan columns but is significantly mutilated and in want of restoration. A turret clock for St. Swithun's was made late in the 17th century. Its original dial had only an hour hand. In 1867 this was replaced with a new dial that has both hour and minute hands. Some time after 1989 a new turret clock was installed; the 17th century original is now displayed in the nave. The Gothic Revival architect Charles Buckeridge restored St. Swithun's from 1865 until 1872. St. Swithun's had been decorated with mediaeval wall paintings, once brightly coloured but by 1823 described as "dim with age". During the restoration work it was found impossible to remove the layers of whitewash covering them.
I bought a cheap tape recorder made by this company around 50 years ago. It had the same smell that this clock had which I purchased recently.

This article is about The New Jersey Colgate clock. For the Indiana Colgate Clock, see Colgate Clock (Indiana).
The Colgate Clock is an octagonal clock in Jersey City, New Jersey, United States, with a diameter of 50 feet (15.24 meter), and it faces the Hudson River. It is currently situated 400 meters south of the former site of the headquarters of consumer products conglomerate Colgate-Palmolive, which was until the 1980s based in Jersey City and maintained by John A. Winters from the 1930's until his retirement in 1976.
The current Colgate Clock was built in 1924 to replace an earlier clock designed by Colgate engineer Warren Day and constructed by the Seth Thomas Clock Company for the centennial of the Colgate Company in 1906. The original clock was relocated to a Colgate factory in Clarksville, Indiana.
As of 2005, the Colgate Clock stands on an otherwise empty lot; all of the other old buildings in the complex were demolished in 1985, when Colgate left New Jersey. The lot is located on the Hudson River waterfront and the clock itself is 100 meters south of the Goldman Sachs Tower, the largest skyscraper in the state of New Jersey. The construction of that building in the early 2000s forced a relocation of the clock southward to its current location. At the time of the relocation the size of the Colgate advertisement attached to it was reduced to comply with the Hudson River No Billboard law. As a part of the relocation agreement Goldman Sachs now maintains the clock.
When you're watching the left hand clock on the Musee d'Orsay, the people in the clock are watching you. One of the best sneak views in Paris.
The cabin we rented in Door County was decorated with nautical antiques. This clock came from the old Coast Guard Station in Sturgeon Bay, WI
In the lobby of 55 Broadway
Taken during a tour of 55 Broadway, the headquarters of London Underground and London's first skyscraper.
The building was designed by Charles Holden (1875-1960), and constructed between 1927-29. The building was the tallest in London until 1932 (when it was superseded by Senate House, another of Holden's sites).
55 Broadway was the headquarters for the Underground Electric Railways Company of London (UERL), and later London Transport, although operations are now planned to move to other sites.
The art deco building is a cruciform design, ten storeys high, and faced with Portland stone.
Another junk store buy, $30. needed key and pendulum. Works great, keeps good time, sounds beautiful. Missing glass bezel. German I think.

Dash clock from a 1962 Cadillac; partially desaturated color image. There were two different clocks available to insert into the car - the Borg and the Westclox. This is a Borg. The plastic faceplate is scratched and cloudy. Numbers are painted white on the back of the plastic while the minute tick marks are raised painted pieces on the black clock face. Hour and minute hands are white while the second-hand is black with dark orange tip. When the clock works the second-hand ticks (rather than sweeps).
I was going to clean the clock face and plastic cover, but the adjusting knob on the front has to be removed and that just didn't want to give on this clock either, so that's three clocks I couldn't completely dismantle. By this time I was frustrated so it happens that I twisted and the plastic front of the clock pivoted on the adjuster knob pin and swung away. So I took some pictures before swinging the cover back over.
Clock time had been set to 12:28 but the hands shifted while rotating the plastic cover away and I just wasn't going to fix that.
In "Forever Knight" this is the style of clock would have been in Nick's Caddy.
