The movement of the hour hand is pretty terrible though.
- Animats 4y agoThat was a big thing in the 1950s. The Jefferson Electric Golden Hour clock worked the same way. One was given away with every Philco TV set one year, and millions were made.[1] They're available on eBay. Real gold plating, even.
