Alarm clocks
I read on some articles recently about being less 'hooked' on to mobile telephones and recommendations to use alarm clocks to wake up in the morning. That of course gives one an immediate excuse to indulge in fantasies for alternatives to telephones as alarm clocks 
So my dear friends, what options are there in terms of wrist, pocket and table clocks with alarms! A dream would be one of the Paul Gerber retrofited Oris's, but I am told they are just for Paul's amusement.
What affordable fun alternatives are there for mechanical alarm clocks?

Here are a few words about the Oris in this link here www.independentintime.com
great music
What a way to wake up! Sounds great, both the alarm and the tick-tock of the clocks. Do you lock up all the table clocks in a room
I hadn't wound all those clocks in years, but they are all keeping time this am!
They make a real symphony of sound. One ticking is annoying; four is lovely!
Thanks for the link!
I totally want one of those ORIS babies!!! PG is a genius! PS in fact I am buying one of his watches from a fellow purist tomorrow. Stay tuned for a photo very soon !!! ;-)
me wants a PG too
Wow! Great! look forward to hearing about your PG. I would love to find one too and am saving up for one
Yes, Paul Gerber's watches are wonderful.
I have the Synchron 42 already and am looking to add to the collection tomorrow. Will show it off once I get it in my hands

Just love that retrograde seconds hand and the lacquer dial ...
