Time flies clocks x 3

A set of wall clocks featuring three cities - Hong Kong, New York and London which may save you taxing your wee brain when working out time differences. If you look closely you'll see that the second hand has a depiction of a mini aeroplane. So, time really does fly or in this case, moves in a circle. Affordability rating - Cheap Chic. £50.00 Desirability rating - Fun and quirky. A discreet and useful way to fill a blank wall. Available from http://www.heals.co.uk/

Ghost Clock by Yee-Ling Yan.

This is a striking interpretation of the traditional carriage clock. It features ornate etching and a reflective mirror backing. It comes complete with white gloves as it requires simple but gentle self assembly. But, be careful, it's a fragile piece. It takes one AA battery which is included. This clock would make a perfect wedding gift or pressie for the lady in your life.
Affordability rating - Cheap Chic. Approx.£70.00
Desirability rating - Future Classic. Proud owner of this piece. The clear Ghost clock is the nicest, IMHO, but the picture doesn't do it justice. It really is rather beautiful.

Cuckoo clock by Diamantini & Domeniconi

This is a great modern take on a classic iconic piece. The clock has a light sensor which to keeps the cuckoo quiet at night and allegedly, you can alter the mechanism to completely silence same bird. Available in different colours.
Retails at approx. £120.00
