Make Time for Recycling

HYBRID WALL CLOCK


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. This product was made by hand. Click icon for more information. In 1991, Graham Bergh got a flat tire and used the flat inner tube to hang his stereo speakers. Intrigued with the notion of reviving discarded bicycle parts, he and his artisan friends in Portland, Oregon, started creating functional products from recycled bike parts and other rescued materials. This Hybrid Wall Clock is a prime example - it's made using mirror-like hard discs harvested from discarded computers and combined with bicycle chain rings. It's wall mountable and operates on a single AA battery. You'll get great mileage out of this clock and feel good in knowing that you're doing your part in keeping America litter-free!

Due to the reclaimed nature of the hard discs, the color may vary. We apologize for any inconveinence.

Artist card included.

Comments about HYBRID WALL CLOCK:

This clock is beautiful! I was shopping for my father, a cycling enthusiast and a computer programmer, and this clock fit the bill perfectly! It arrived fast and looks great in his office. Like a few of the other reviews said, the hard drive is silver, not gold as depicted, and is a bit smaller than I thought. It is still a great design!

Hour and minute hand don't contrast with the rest making them more difficult to read from a distance. The bicycle and computer enthusiasts in my family love the design.

Comments about HYBRID WALL CLOCK:

I got this clock as a gift for my brother who owns a bicycle shop. It is such a beautiful design, simple and stunning. That the clock is made from recycled items just adds to the appeal--it was the topic of discussion at his party! The online photo shows the clock with a gold-colored hard drive in the center. The one I bought came with a silver hard drive--still gorgeous--but I thought the gold added another dimension to the design.

Comments about HYBRID WALL CLOCK:

I love that it's made from recycled materials that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill somewhere. It looks great, but is too small to hang in a large room. I bought it for my fiance as a birthday gift (he got the bike chain bottle opener for Christmas!), and he absolutely loves it. He's going to hang it in his office at work.

Service & Delivery comments:

Super fast delivery! I ordered the item on Monday, and it was delivered Thursday, just in time for the birthday celebration!

My husband is a bike geek. He loved this clock for his painting space. The look of it is great...I find the ticking a little distracting (but he does not!)
