Astronomical Clock goes for astronomical price

Chris Davies, Mar 19th 2007 Discuss [0]

Since it's traditional on retirement to be given a watch or a clock, I'm giving Vincent notice that I'll be expecting one of these beauties when I enter my dotage. Recently sold for almost $2m at auction, the one-of-a-kind astronomic sphere is a hand-engraved sky-chart that progressively opens through the indecently gorgeous clockwork mechanism inside.

The Water powered alarm clock

Want to cut costs on your power bill? Well I’m not sure how much this will cut, but you can purchase the water powered alarm clock. This alarm clock is powered completely by water. Just add the water into the reservoir and in 3 minutes the alarm clock will work as normal. If you notice the display fading just add more water to make it pop back to life again. Just be sure not to tell your boss about this one, otherwise you can’t use the power outage as an excuse to be late to work. Then again, being the only one to work on time when the power has gone out might be just enough to get you that raise you’ve been wanting. Of course you won’t need one to buy this clock, it is priced at about $10. Water powered alarm clock [via shiny shiny]
