2 clocks in one is a fine idea but I don't like the shape. I don't say it should be a circle, but it looks like, when you look at it, that's it's just deformed. A better design for the item would look less like a mistake that was supposed to be a circle and more like an intentional shape of a clock with another smaller clock by it. I'm just saying this from a "peripheral vision," that something you expect to be round oughtn't be disturbing you out of the corner of your eye -- it's not relaxing in general, and time is already stressful (to many).

That's what I thought as well. The shape seems more melty then it should be. For a second, I thought that was the original intention until I noticed the smaller clock.

I'm right there with K T G .....
...there's no flow to the appearance, it stops at the corner.
I'm all for organic and amoeba shapes in design, but that one major issue unsells it for me.
Great colors, though. ;-)

The shape is good. You can rest on on a flat surface with it it rolling over. Very useful when you don't want to mount it on a wall.

Nice, but nothing special that stands out and needs to be voted "hot".

I'd rather have two normal clocks side by side...

Maybe I'm just a child of the digital age, but I'd have to stare at this for a minute when ever I wanted to know what the time is.

When the meiosis is complete, do you have two clocks?
