Nixie Clock IN-14 Steampunk. 75 Year Old. RGB Lit. Ammeter Walnut & Copper Case

  
Those are the patent dates noted on the front brass panel. The case is solid walnut and I can tell from the screws holding the case together this meter has never been opened. There are 4 RGB's one on each corner of the meter scale that provides a never ending light show. There is a switch that turns the RGB's off if you are using the clock in a bedroom. Handmade items are not perfect and this is no exception.

There are minor flaws that in my mind gives it character. When items are made from copper they are not perfect. There are dents and tool marks from either the construction or the original piece of copper plate that was used. These items aren't made on a machine, they are hand made. I have recently had a negative experience with a very unreasonable, nitpicking person that this concept was completely unable for him to understand.

If you expect a genuine handmade authentic steampunk clock, then you have found the right place. This meter for as old as it is is in remarkable condition. They built them to last a 75+ years ago and it has now found a new life. This meter had never been opened. The wax plugs were still in the holes that allow access to the inside.

There is a YouTube video of similar clock in action Search "Greg Denny" Weston 155. I have made quite a few of these and I've found that if you have a design that works for a particular model why change it. Back to my normal introduction.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my product. I've had an interesting life full of hobbies like wood carving, blacksmithing and copper work this experience is reflected in this one of a kind creation. I sell a high quality clock designed in Switzerland and have sourced NOS tubes. With the artistic help of my wife staining and beautifying the enclosures we now have a quality product that I would like to own and that I can sell with confidence.

You can have a clock hand built in the USA from parts that are decades old but are new and being utilized for the first time in their lives. The clock has a battery backup that keeps time to + or - 1 minute a year. However from my observations I would say it is much more accurate than that. This is coming from a person who is a perfectionist and has CDO (that's OCD but in alphabetical order). That level of obsessive precision goes into the building of your clock. The design is a 6 digit display that every minute if you wish will display the date for 5 seconds and then scroll back to the time. The only word that works for a description is "COOL". All the functions are set with one simple button. There are too many variations to describe here but be assured you can have this clock Your Way. Tube life is lengthened by a blanking mode which you set when you are away and also an Anti Cathode Poisoning Feature that keeps the filaments clean and adds to the overall life of the tubes. Inspired by the SteamPunk movement I've incorporated elements of copper and brass all handmade and unique to each clock. If there is a problem contact information is provided so I can quickly and efficiently take care of your needs. If you read my feedback you'll see I have happy customers and would certainly like your business as well. The size is 8" wide by 4" deep by 9 tall. Again thank you for your consideration.
