A modern classic design attributed to designer George Nelson, but believed by some to reflect the combination of two late-night doodles by colleague Isamu Noguchi. Wooden orbitals denote hours. Flying saucer hands tell the time. Silent and very precise. Takes one AA battery (incl.). Note: The face of the clock does not have George Nelson's name printed on it, as it does in the product photo. It says Verichron printed at the 12 o'clock position.
 13"dia.
