around about clock: the hand stays still while the clock moves

The Around About Clock turns all that you know about normal clocks on its head- er, side. Instead of hands going around a static clock face, these numbers rotate clockwise behind a static hand.

The clock was designed by Anthony Dickens for Lexon and comes in black or white with a red arm. The name Around About refers to the ways in which people estimate time, such as quarter til, half past, and so forth.

Me? I think it’s hecka cool. If you do too, you can get one for the perfectly reasonable price of $39.00 from The Conran Shop.
