A statement 1970"s style spherical alarm clock with a tilted arabic dot dial and metal pointer hands. The acrylic clock and stand has a matt finish, with acrylic lens, and digital alarm sound. Known as ‘silent sweep’ in the industry, the hands move in a constant sweeping motion rather than a stepped tick. So you won’t hear any ticking but if your hearing is particularly sensitive in a completely silent room you may hear a very quiet whirring.
