I've got a desk job now. Desk jobs are inherently boring. I need some small pings of happiness during the day, this flip clock will do the trick. UPDATE below Very satisfying to set these clocks, with a distinct "click" to each flip. But you need to be careful as you approach the desired time setting because if you go past it you have to flip forward through all 23 hrs and 59 mins - there's no flipping backwards. These boards in train stations were infinitely cooler than anything we have today. This was in the Philly station.

If you can believe it, I have never seen a flip clock in person, but I have always been interested by them! I hope that it brings some more joy to your job! :-)

The flipping nature of the numbers is analog satisfaction at its best. The old train station flip-letter boards were amazing, I'll post a video link in the post above.
