1008 J Street
Unique in Sacramento, this street clock originally featured a classical design and was located in front of Monk’s Jewelers on K Street, near the Crest Theater.
In the 1040’s, Mayes Jewelers moved the clock to J Street and outlined the clock face with neon lights and diamonds in a “Moderne” style. The clock remodel was one of the first uses of neon in Sacramento. Note the glass panels in the base of the clock which reveal how the clock functions.

A detail of the clock on top of S. Bento trainstation, Porto. This shot was taken at late afternoon and the golden colors in the station was really captivating.
Since I was using the 135mm OM prime lens and not a zoom lens, to frame correctly this shot I needed to take it from inside a shop on the other side of the steet :)
I didn't like the last one and returned it for this one. I'm sure glad I did, because it's the most awesome clock ever.

An inside look at the clock tower in Bangor, PA. The antique four-faced clock was manufactured by the E. Howard Clock Co. of Boston, Massachusetts, and was installed in the borough hall in 1907. In addition to being Bangor’s timepiece, the clock chimed a coded ring to alert the borough fire department as to the location of the fire. They also used the tower to hang the fire hoses after a fire to dry.
After a period of neglect when the chimes fell silent, the Slate Belt Heritage Center, under the guidance and care of Jay Albert, brought the historic clock back to life again in early 2000. The help of a generous personal donation helped Jay to single-handedly restore the faces. The clock mechanism was restored by David Morgan, former president of the Worldwide Clock Towers Association.
