I came up with this clock concept back in the late 1980's and made several clocks that I sold and gave away to friends mostly. Sander's clock is beautiful. My version was wall mounted and did not show the movement (I think the movement in Sander's version is beautifully made, but distracting to the clean lines of the hands). I know that words are cheap so see US patent no. 4,852,072 or click on the following link: http://www.box.net/shared/smcmqqm0as I had stopped working on this clock around 1995 and moved on to a watch version (a bit harder).

The interesting thing is what kept me and my partner up all night talking: The hands have to be adjusted to mimic the standard hand position for it to be readable. For instance, at every half hour, the minute hand is pointing straight down, but in relation to it's pivot point (the hour hand), the minute hand never makes a full revolution. The hand travels 55 positions for every hour. Similarly the second hand only travels 59 positions for every minute. I could be wrong about this, but that's what we came up with. Anyone have an idea?
