Go and buy one.

That's really cool. I definitely want one.

Looks like its some sort of mind control device in the time lapse, big brother?

Still trying to find where I can buy it and how much it costs.

That's pretty cool.

Meh, too gimmicky for me.

£350

That is awesome. We need to know where we can get those...

Tobywon · 15 Jan 2010 at 17:33

That is a genius idea, hats off to them for producing something that original and clever

titaniumx3 · 15 Jan 2010 at 17:33

pointless, plus I bet it uses a lot more power.

Post it here if you find out, I’m sure quite a few people would be interested.

That is one of the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Not only will it NOT be as accurate as a clock with hands but it will require more power, also they're bloody massive.

It's a gimmick.

Django x2 · 15 Jan 2010 at 17:39

do it right they could even have one with multiple time zones

I wouldn't want to hear the rattling sound as the ball drops down at midnight, every single day.

whitecrook · 15 Jan 2010 at 17:45

You could probably fabricate one yourself. It's not complicated.

Vampire · 15 Jan 2010 at 18:02

Do not want.

PhillyDee · 15 Jan 2010 at 18:08

Its pretty clever! Would I want one . . . No.
But then again, I had a backwards clock for 3 years (Still have it in a box, was going to sell it, but probably wouldnt get around to it). I dont even like analogue clocks, they arent as accurate as I like. So I use a radio controlled digital clock.

Lethagized · 15 Jan 2010 at 18:12

I think it's crap. The ball gets in the way of the numbers, and you have to stare at it to get an accurate reading of the time.
