We love clocks, and we love words, which means we really love this modern timepiece. Using a quadratic matrix of letters, this clock tells you the time, in words, in five minute intervals...
Made in Germany by Biegert & Funk, this clock is available in five great colors, and is offered in both German and English.
We love the super clean sans serif font and the great, slightly retro colors. A light sensor automatically adjusts the illumination of the letters, so this piece adapts to the ambient brightness. We think this is more of a work of art than anything, but is definitely a functional design. We're swooning...

Swooning here too. Just another clock to add to my growing obsession for clocks.

love it because it's word and love it even more because it's in German too. The price is close to ridiculous, but then again good ideas are not cheap.
*swoon*
Wtf the price! I thought Germans were all sunshine and smiles, not evil
Actually it is available in 6 different colors not including the steel and in German, English, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, and French...
