This over-the-top wall clock has way more gears than it really needs – but it’ll definitely draw stares from anyone who tries to tell time with it.

Homeloo’s Jumbo Gear Clock has not 2, 3 or even 10 gears. Nope, it’s got an more than 50 gears – each and every one of them exposed on the surface of the clock for everyone to see. Check out the video below to see all the gears in action:

The clock measures in at 16″ in diameter, and it takes 4 D-cell batteries to keep the entire mechanism turning.

The Jumbo Gear Clock is available from Homeloo for $78 USD.
