Modern Clock XXI- Современные часы XXI

Зачем нужны дополнительные часы в смартфоне, когда там есть встроенные? Приложение Modern Clock XXI даёт исчерпывающий ответ на этот вопрос: чтобы было красиво. Эти часы действительно гораздо красивее встроенных и имеют смысл как самодостаточная программа.

Сценарий использования этих часов, правда, виден лишь один. Вы устанавливаете свой смартфон в док-станцию рядом с компьютером и запускаете эти часы. При этом экран смартфона постоянно включен, вы видите на циферблате время и дату.

Внешний вид часов можно тонко настроить. Над циферблатом может отображаться и виртуальное табло с цифрами, которое можно включить или отключить. По желанию можно выводить на экран и текстовую информацию – число, день недели и т.д. Настраивается фон часов (можно выбрать из встроенных картинок – закат, камни, горный пейзаж или несколько одноцветных заливок) и цвет информационных элементов – циферблата и текстового табло.

В верхней части экрана можно увидеть рекламный модуль. Но он органично вписывается в цветовую гамму часов. Тапнув на нём, можно перейти в список приложений от разработчика Espoo Team в магазине Windows Phone. Среди них, кстати, могут найтись и весьма полезные.

Некоторые функции приложения, впрочем, доступны только за дополнительную плату. Это, к примеру, озвучивание времени голосом (доступны мужской и женский голоса, настраивается периодичность напоминаний и их содержание – только время или также дата). Купив полную версию программы с голосовым модулем, вы автоматически уберёте и рекламный баннер.

Остаётся только пожелать разработчикам сделать ещё больше настроек дизайна. В конце концов, главная задача этих часов – показывать время красиво. Поэтому хочется, чтобы красивостей стало больше, и они стали разнообразнее.

Creative Clocks: 10 Amazing Examples of Modern Clockwork • TheCoolist - The Modern Design Lifestyle Magazine

The Encyclopedia of Cool, Finely Curated Creative Clocks: 10 Amazing Examples of Modern Clockwork

Designer Clocks | Who could have predicted that the measure of time would become such an artful affair?  From the early astronomical clocks of the past to the modern timepieces of today, the clock is often a thing of beauty in the world of design.  To celebrate just how progressive the modern clock has become, here are 10 amazing contemporary clocks by some of today’s most talented industrial designers.

Numbers LED Clock by Jonas Damon

While modern science may suggest that time is linear, designer Jonas Damon has another belief entirely.  The Numbers LED Clock was designed for those who prefer to dissect time, to chop things up a bit and rebuild time in your own way.  These four individual blocks of time show one LED-lit numeral each, allowing you to set the order however you like.  Sure, 12:34 a.m. will always be 12:34 a.m. but you can stack these blocks to display that time in the manner of your choice.

Numbers LED Clock Gallery

Milky Way Clock by Henrik Amberla

One part mobius strip, one part galaxy, the Milky Way Clock by Henrik Amberla is a refreshing take on the modern alarm clock.  Its symmetrical shape features three separate time displays and some interesting functionality as a result.  When your morning rest is broken by this alarm, just rotate it to the next display for a preset snooze function.  To set the alarm, just flip it on its back.  The displays will calibrate, ready for rotation the next morning when you need just a few more minutes of sleep.

Furni Knox Chipboard Clock Radio

The people at Furni make some seriously sexy wooden clock radios, and this one is no exception.  The Furni Knox Chipboard Clock Radio is also known as the “intern clock”, a model made by the beginners at the Furni factory.  Why?  The mahogany, walnut and beech clocks can get a bit pricey with material costs, and this one lets the interns experiment and get used to the craft of wooden clock making.  With much respect to the pros at Furni, your interns have produced our favorite from your line.

DigiMech Clock by Duncan Shotton

In the DigiMech Clock by Duncan Shotton. the business behind the numbered display is truly the main event.  The four digits that define the day are driven by long, numbered slides that slip into position with each passing minute and hour.  The numbers that aren’t shown front-and-center extend above and below the DigiMech clock, showcasing the entire experience of modern timekeeping.

DigiMech Clock Gallery

Jaeger Le Coultre Atmos Clock

The Atmos Clock is part of an 80-year tradition in timekeeping by Jaeger Le Coultre.  The first Atmos Clock was released to the world in 1928, originally created by craftsman Jean-Leon Reutter.  Today, a new glass-and-metal table clock bares the same name as the original, now designed by Australian designer Marc Newson.  This amazing timepiece is more about art than it is about time, a masterfully crafted sculpture displaying the minutes and hours and the heavens above inset behind this glass case.

Create Your Own Clock by Bomi Kim

There’s nothing quite like the sentimental value of a clock you create yourself.  Designer Bomi Kim gives you that opportunity with her Create Your Own Clock. a simple spinning centerpiece into which you insert the hands of your choice.  Use sticks, pencils, crayons– anything you can imagine to be inserted into this clock.  Personally, we think a couple branches of pussy willow would look brilliant on our wall.

Create Your Own Clock Gallery

Segmentus Clock by Art Lebedev Studio

Designer Art Lebedev is well known in tech and design circles, especially for his creation of the OLED Optimus Maximus keyboard.  The Segmentus Clock by Art Lebedev Studio is another stroke of design genius, a digital clock driven by a mechanical means.  The clock shows the time using a series of rotating internal bars that shift with each minute.  The display is semi-translucent, showing the inner workings of the clock while it is flipping away.  What will Art Lebedev create next?

Segmentus Clock Gallery

Nixie Concrete Clock

The transistor tube carries with it a certain feeling of nostalgia, a reminder of the analog age we’ve all but forgotten.  To sing its praise, the Nixie Concrete Clock features six inset transistor tubes which display the time within a concrete block.  The clock has a certain nuclear bunker appeal to it– like it was something that would appear in Fallout or Lost, but is instead available for your desk or bookshelf.

Nixie Concrete Clock Gallery

Minu Tuner Clock by Antrepo Design

Our favorite of the list, the Minu Tuner Clock by Antrepo Design is a colorful little bar with a digital time display.  It shows the time with LED light that matches its color, showing the hour on the left and a scrolling bar on the right for minutes.  It’s available in red, orange, green, yellow and blue, and we kind of want one of each.  That red Minu Tuner, however, would look sexy on TheCoolist’s night stand…

Minu Tuner Clock Gallery

RollOClock Wall Clock

This scrolling clock concept takes up a fair bit of wall real estate, but it is designed as a framed work of art in itself.  The RollOClock Wall Clock showcases time in a unique, scrolling pattern, where time is displayed with a black and white strip that slowly scrolls throughout the day.  Sadly, RollOClock is still only a concept, in that it won’t yet be available for purchase.  It looks brilliant in that modern setting above, and we’d like to see more non-traditional wall clocks like this hit the market.

The Uk s Leading Antique Fusee Clock Specialist - Sales - Restoration Services - London - Modern Fusee Clocks

Fusee Clocks Hints & Tips Page - Modern Fusee Clocks

Modern Fusee Clocks

Today there are a lot of cheap imitation clocks coming from India and other eastern countries. If you are looking for a cheap alternative to a English fusee clock there is nothing wrong with these modern clocks but you have to realize they will not be a patch on the genuine antique clocks available. Personally I would not pay more than £125 (GBP) for a reproduction as there are better genuine old non fusee clocks on the market for a little over the £100 mark.

Image check list to recognize a modern fusee movement:

Click on the image to enlarge the differences between modern cheap movement components and a english made antique fusee movement c1860.

A: Horrible thick wheels & gears.

I think everyone can see the difference between the gears in this picture. The new gear on the modern reproduction movement is much thicker compared to the hand crafted original item.

As you can see the quality of the two movements is not even close. Firstly the metal is yellow not orange on the antique movement. This is hard to spot if you have nothing to compare against.

B: Serial numbers or makers stamps.

The second point to check is any serial numbers. If you look at the antique movement the serial number is cast or heavily stamped into the back plate. On the new reproduction movement the serial number is lightly stamped. The text looks like it was designed on a computer not by a master clockmaker.

C: Back cock & general quality.

Finally look at the back cock. I do not think I need to tell you what to look for here as the antique back cock is far superior in finish & quality.

Here is a typical modern fusee clock. This retailers name appears a lot on repro clocks. The two areas you need to make note of here are 1. The case is thick and out of proportion. 2. The name is spelt wrong. Instead of Westminster Brid G e Road it reads Westminster Brid C e Road. You will see a lot of clocks marked Croydon on the dial that are repro's. Gillett & Bland get their name used a lot on repro clocks normally with spelling mistakes but be careful as this is not always the case. Recently I have seen a lot of Walker reproductions coming on to the market but they are obvious as they carry the word Croydon which is not where John Walker would have signed his dials from.

Lots of alarm bells are ringing with this picture so let me explain as best I can.

D: Finish & colour of wood.

The finish is too shiny and the colour is obtained through staining the wood using modern dye's .

E: Dial support runners.

The dial support runners on most genuine antique clocks is rough, dirty but well made. If you notice the runners on this picture look machine cut and are the same colour as the surrounding wood. Check the retaining screws also as they should be rusty or very dirty and not at all shiny like a new screw. The runners in this image also look too narrow to me.

The side door on a lot of clocks including antique clocks has been replaced so this section must be taken with caution. On this door the construction is unusual but not necessarily wrong. Later clocks did use this construction. The thing to take note of here is the colour of the hinges. They should be a dirty brass or at least shiny but with dirt where they can not be polished. These are the same colour as the case and a definite sign of a mass produced poor quality. To see how a antique side door should really look please clock on the image to the right.

G & H: Case construction & finish.

If you look closely you can see the dial surrounds back surface is machine cut. There is a circular pattern on the wood in other words. Also the back is once again stained with wood dye's to try and reproduce a old look. Not very successfully it has to be said as a old clock tends to have a very dirty sooty finish. You have to remember when these clocks were new house used real fires not central heating. The clocks surfaces collected the soot and dirt over time to produce a hard to fake finish. You will also see marked with the H's two cracks in the dial surround back. This is where 3 separate pieces of wood have been used to construct the modern clocks dial surround. I would say 99% of all English fusee dial clocks have a solid 1 piece dial surround. So being made in 3 pieces should set those alarm bells ringing again. This is not always the case as construction methods changed slightly but as a rule these notes will help you spot a modern fusee clock. 20th century clocks might be of similar construction to the modern reproduction so you have to be very careful when examining a clock such as a 1940 RAF dial clock by Elliott or SM & Co, but the quality will still be far superior on the genuine clocks. A handy note would be most of the time good quality 20th century clocks use a fusee chain not gutline or wire.

How do I tell a modern clock from a genuine antique?

The first way to spot a modern clock is by the colour of the wood used for the case. They are all heavily stained and tend to look a uniform colour. Normally a dark burgundy or some times ebonized (black). If you look inside the clock and at the clock cases back you will see the wood looks new and clean. If they have attempted to age the wood it will still look shiny and stained. A real old finish tends to have dust and dirt in cracks and corners. The old wood will normally be a nice mahogany or oak and on the inside of the case it will look rough rather than machine finished.
