This pocket watch alarm clock is based around the premise that antique pocket watches, despite their classic looks and (often still functioning) precision mechanics, don’t really have a place in the modern world.

It’s a depressing point, but true (unless you’re a nurse) – as went waistcoats, so went fob watches.

So where better to keep your collectible pocket watch than in this alarm clock case? The subtle, hidden LED display (it only appears when you pick the unit up) is a great idea that has a future beyond this clock, and it’s great to have the classic look of the fob watch face to look at the rest of the time.

But there’s just one slight problem that we can spot in this picture. We’ll leave it up to you to discover it for yourself.
