The ultimate in personal clocks

by Al in Cool Clocks, Gadget Gift Ideas

I got clocks

Most of the cool clocks that we write about are hi-tech or plain old quirky, this next clock is more of the personal nature, the I got clocked clock.

At first glance the “I got clocked” looks like a plain old analogue clock with a personal photo as a background. However that wouldn’t make it a cool gadget, what does is the fact that the clocks arms are those of the subject in the picture. When ordering you send them a suitable picture which they will chop and make your own arms move with the times.

The effect is actually pretty good (I was expecting it to look a bit pants but was pleasantly surprised), you can see a gallery of sample clock animations over here.

Prices start at $49.95 from I got clocked and you’ve got to admit these would make an exceedingly unique gift.

I wonder if you can make one using your pet as the subject?

Ok, I’m sorta confused. Why are the regular hands still on there?

Ah, never mind–it’s the second hand! I’m a dummy

In the gallery on the “I got clocked” site they did have one made from a dog but it looked the dodgiest out of all of them, though if you could get your dog to do a suitable pose it could work.

Well worked out TC :rolls eyes:

Looks cool and the price is affordable. Maybe I will buy 1 for my friend

I notice the examples don’t have any times with the arms going backwards… I should think they would look pretty bent out of shape at those times, especially the couples pics.

Hmmm, considering doing a horizontal one of a swimmer, so the arms would fit any which way… :P
