I want 3 wall clocks in a row

sparklymessygirl

What I mean is one of those sets of three clocks to hang on the wall to represent three different time zones - I want one as a gift for my parents as they have three children all on different continents! I like proper clocks - i.e. not digital. Conservative looking ones.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Choose a nice clock , buy three , nice bit of wood to mount them on.

Thanks guys - that is a great website but so pricey! The £59 one though is manageable. I have just shown the OH the site and told him he has 11 months to cobble one up as a Christmas present. He was not impressed. I have limited skills but will think on't!

You could get three cheap wall clocks, take off the clock mechanism and mount them in anything you wanted. The hard part would be getting the digits in the right place. You could get round that by tracing the face of the cheap clock after removing the hands etc.

There is a website called instructables.com which can give you instructions on how to have a go at something like this or just give you some ideas.

Hope this helps.

Share & Enjoy.

Nice site bungle.

I have made a few of these over the years_enjoyable.

My fav film: had this running for yonks.





This was my practice one: I never used it.





Worth a try they are easy to do.

Cargo - these are great!
Bunnglesmate - this might be beyond me but I will have a proper look.

Thank you

When I was in Tesco a couple of days ago they had three wall clocks in one box and on the front they were displayed in three different time zones. They were about 5-6" across each and were about £12 from memory for the three. They were silver with a white face.
