This is exactly what we need: a clock that politely dispenses with the math (no matter how simple) in favor of words. Biergert & Funk handmake this one, called the QLOCKTWO, with both German and English language faces — and there lots of color options. The price is a stunningly uncheap €1099 (about $1600), so get to saving your dollars and cents. There’s a video showing off the QLOCKTWO after the break, but you’d better speak German — or do what we did, and mute it and listen to AC / DC while you watch it.
