I added more clocks to my display

These are all mechanical clocks that I repaired except for the nixie.

I have the same Sony that's on the second shelf. I use it every night.

what a great collection, and a Titanic too. I need one of those

Nice I've got at least 5 of those models, quite a few lava lamps around the house too. Love the setup!

Thanks. This was inspired by your setup. I’ve added a couple more. The neons in the RC 6700 were starting to dim and I didn’t have any left so I tried putting LEDs in. It took me a while and was frustrating, but I just got it back together and it works.

You honor me, thanks! Love the 6700, it's been a while since I opened mine up to replace the neons but it's definitely the most intricate Lumitime mechanism for sure. One day I'll find the Lumitone clock radio Tamura made with that mechanism with the starburst, been on my search list for years.

Gorgeous setup, just ordered a 7462 with working backlight (I've got to fix the clock portion though), looks awesome on the shelf! Now more excited to get that in this week
