Did You Know?
Before November 1883, New York City operated on its own distinct local time based on the sun's position. It wasn't until the booming railroad industry spearheaded the adoption of standardized time zones that New York synchronized its clocks to Eastern Standard Time. This shift forever changed how the fast-paced metropolis tracked its days and connected with the rest of the world.
Product Description
This wall clock merges classic horological design with detailed cartographic art. The dial features an intricate, gold-toned street map highlighting the iconic grid of New York City, set against a deep black background. It utilizes a dual-layout display, combining traditional high-visibility luminescent sports markers on the inner dial with bold Arabic numerals on the outer edge. A mineral glass lens magnifies the functional date display at the three o'clock position. The sweeping second hand is driven by a high-torque, silent quartz movement, ensuring a completely tick-free environment. The mechanism is protected by a solid, cold-milled stainless steel chassis with a distinctive scalloped bezel.
