Interested in getting a new unique gift, or just getting something cool for around the house? Check out the Pin Clock. This clock will put anyone who isn’t familiar with how it works into awe. The time is shown by thousands of perfectly aligned pins, the number rumored to be around 3 thousand, which move around to form the current time.

Most people may double-take when they first see this magical transition. The Pin Clock might even keep your kids away from the television with its mesmerizing movement. A transparent cover keeps fingers away from the intricate pin moving, and keeps the pins from falling out (a potential disaster!) The clock makes small clicking noises when the time is changing, simulating the sound of an old clock ticking. It’s actually quite a bit of noise, so this is definitely not the clock you want sitting on your desk at work.

The clock has all the features of a basic novelty clock - it tells the time in a cool way, but with none of the extra. In addition to be noisy every 60 seconds when the minute changes, it also lacks an alarm. The clock is also hard to see in the dark, making it not fit for a bed stand, but perfect for any other room that might need something interesting to look at. If nothing else the clock makes a wonderful conversation piece.

The Pin Clock operates on two AA batteries, which are not included, so if this is a gift, prepare accordingly. The clock weighs around 3 pounds, a bit heavy for its small size, but that’s what It makes the perfect gift for anyone looking for something new and cool.
