Ares501 - Mr Green shares a truly unique and personal gift: a custom-made word clock from a dear friend in Croatia. This post highlights the intersection of friendship, personalized craftsmanship, and a playful challenge to traditional horological preferences, making it a standout example of community interaction.

This year for my B day I got very special present from very special friend.
Hand made with love in Croatia the one and only Word clock.

He was making it for me from the scratch for months.
Now that's true friendship!

Low and behold the full-color LED word clock with five-minute interval marks.

Custom software which enables user-selectable full spectrum color of letters.

Easter egg animation.
It displays name by name of whole family members one by one than in the end all of them including surname...a blast!!!

It displays names randomly in colours...super cool

Custom engraving on the back.
What else than DNA

Controls...time setting...colour setting...press both...easter egg animation appears...cooool

Real time clock built in, with battery power, so it keeps time even when unplugged.

Kudos and thank you my dearest friend!

Cheers
D

Key Points from the Discussion

The word clock, while sharing a concept with commercial products like Qlocktwo, stands out due to its unique 'Easter egg' animation that displays family names, adding a deeply personal touch.
The gift was a friendly jab from an 'electric watch guy' to a traditional mechanical watch enthusiast, proving that even a non-mechanical clock can be appreciated for its sentiment and craftsmanship.
The effort and inspiration behind a handmade, personalized gift like this word clock are truly incredible, transcending the typical gift-giving experience.
The custom software allows for user-selectable full-spectrum color for the letters and includes a 'real time clock' with battery backup, ensuring it keeps time even when unplugged.
The clock features custom engraving on the back, further emphasizing the personalized nature of the gift.

The only way to improve on that clock . . .

. . . would be to frame it in purpleheart. Off to shoot pool with the gang shortly, Damjan, with purpleheart cues in hand. Warmest, Art
