It’s a favorite. Enjoy!!

A clock with life!

I just ordered a Puri-4 for our bedroom. It makes a nice companion to our stainless QLOCKTWO Classic in our living room. Totally cool! Kent

Congratulations on the new order! Please post pictures of your new piece when you get a chance!

And Archie approves! Kent ...  

He helped opening the crate, the packaging and doing the setup. Granted, I think he’s a bit unhappy that is is interfering with his seating area! Kent

Archie looks like he's trying to get a better view!

Looks amazing! Do note, put something between the clock and the surface. The rubber feet seem to oxidize the wood furniture over time. So I taped old business cards under the feet.

All the colors are great. I like my simple all silver-y look.

Careful. These things only make you want to accumulate more. You might decide you want the 6 digit version to get the seconds indications as your next clock. The seconds really makes the clock come alive!

I’m already plotting for a 6 digit for my office upstairs! Or our house in AZ… Kent

The fact that this six clock version has much more life, makes it a great office companion. What color choice would you aim for in the six tube variant? I'm sometimes thinking I should've gone for the gold and black one.

We’ve spent far too long eradicating brass/gold from our home! The 4 tube will be perfect for the bedroom and you’re right, the motion of the 6 tube will be fun for the office.

I’ve seen here Horology75 have a tube clock. For me new, i never knew about a tube clock. Tube amps, ok, i know that. I see you like tube clocks a lot and gave a big unboxing show. You are a happy customer, and Dalibor Farny can be proud of such a custome... 

Horology75 has the 4-tube version. But this 6-tube version recently just came out a couple months ago. And I only just finally got mine! Yes. Dalibor Farny should be very proud that he has such customers whom are happy with his product.

And considering the pricing of only around 2000 Euros for the 6 tube version and 1500 Euros for the 4 tube version, it's really a great value!

is the one I like best, too. This is definitely going to work on me. Cheers Marc

Only the most afflicted and crazy watch collectors have such a clock! And keep in mind, Dalibor Farny can only make 50 tubes a week. That's only about 8-9 clocks a week!

Which one would you like to add to your collection? Which color goes well in your home?

I think the 6 would be the way I might lean too, and I may just go for one. I’ve been looking for, thinking about, a clock or clocks for home. Something “cool” but also something that won’t break the bank. As we discussed before for clocks I just can’t ge... 

Yes! There is an app interface that allows you to set the brightness. Notice the "Night Mode" menu at the bottom. You have a brightness in day mode and another brightness in night mode. Notice you have other customization options here. The one I like to s...  

The time can only be set manually?

I was going to get into that detail in my review. You can set the time manually or you can have it sync up with the time via WiFi if you allow it to connect to your home's WiFi.

Your review...

Hello. My name is Horology75, and I'm a Clock-aholic! I've been XXX number of minutes sober!

Patrick, I also recently received a clock - the 1947-T Mk1 time Accumulator. Like the Nixie, it uses obsolete technology (glass-faced analog meters) to indicate the time in an unusual way. If I can find some time I’ll try review it. Mike ...  

Can't wait to read the review!

I gotta look into these more at some point. At least all the reference material is easily found

That’s a fantastic addition. So much style and attention to detail! Thanks for sharing this, Patrick. I think I’m going to get myself the 4 tubes version for my upcoming birthday 😄

First of all... HAPPY UPCOMING BDAY! And Secondly, what a great way to celebrate your BDay! Feel free to message me, I'm happy to make an introduction to Dalibor Farny and ask him to be certain to send you a clock that has been personally autographed by h... 

What a wonderful gesture! I will PM you for sure.
