We got a discount because it doesn’t tell the right time.
“Kids! Time for bed! It’s already 8:62!”
Just kidding. There are six sections. The display is HH:MM:SS. I took this at 06:25:15 PM.

That’s very cool. This may be a dumb question, but did they have LEDs back then? How did the edge kit display work? With this clock we have, the glass (maybe plastic, I’m not sure) pieces are close together and are lit with small LED.
Also, I saw your Nixie tube display in your car. That is amazing!

No, my wife has a small craft room. She keeps it on her desk in there.

It also changes colors. It looks really cool at night.

It was her Christmas present and it’s on her desk.
I’m not allowed to read the time off of it because it’s hers. That’s why I only took a picture of two numbers. She’d kill me if she knew I was playing with it. Ha ha.

I don’t know what brand this is, but I think the idea was to make something similar to and less expensive than the Nixie clock.
