Gear clocks, where the dial rotates on a little cog and shows the hour, are a pretty interesting design, and still rare and original. We’ve reported on one before, but that was not exactly a stylish time piece, but rather a big ring made of plastic.
This one comes as a small (17 cm tall) desk clock, with a turning square dial. This time design seems to be more of a focus than the novelty factor. You also get two clock faces: a Roman and a conventional one.

There’s a reason why we’ve posted about over 80 clocks on CG, clocks make pretty cool gadgets. This next one, the Wall Gear Clock, is probably as different as they come. The hands are gears that slowly move around the clock as time passes.
A fascinating and novel wall clock which is brand new to the market place, the gears all spin around slowly and quietly creating a very eye catching unique clock and at over 56cm wide makes a real centre piece in any room.
The clock is ideal for the modern home where something a bit different is required. Generally the construction is high quality black plastic with some metal components.
The Wall Gear Clock is available from Contemporary Heaven for £78 (~$150).

Out of Tokyo comes the news that a Japanese watchmaker has created the flimsiest clock in the world. This is not only the flimsiest digital clock to be created in the world but also the thinnest. It is as thin as camera film and can be bent to attach to the curve of a wall.
This cool gadget is only three millimeters or .12 inches thick and can be seen from sharp angles, on foggy and rainy days or in bright sunlight.
This is one of the best clocks designed for walls of buildings, round pillars that you see in train stations or at malls. This way anyone will just be able to glance up at this giant flexible clock and know what time it is.
