Word Clock is a unique clock design that tells the time in words. Shaped like a handle, the timepiece features 2 clear acrylic tubes – one spelling out 5 minute increments and the other the hours – with a red marker to indicate the…erm…timeline.

Designed by Hans Muller and Hans van Dongen, the Word Clock is not amusing like The Infallibly Polite Speaking Alarm Clock, but certainly wins points for aesthetic sophistication. $229.00 from Generate Design.
