probably wouldn't be that hard to modify if you had one.

yeah they did make clocks like that. I looked on eBay and there are only 3 right now. One is cheap (so far) and the other 2 are really expensive. I'm gonng watch the cheap one and try to figure out how to print out the face looking as good as he did.

for the face you could easily use a plotter cut what you needed, some white vinyl for the background a black for the x

that would look really nice done up with a plotter but the more easily accesable would probably getting the face printed off at kinkos on some nice 11 x 17 paper and cut it out.

My favorite clock ever was a GG Allin clock a friend of mine bought from Merle. The numbers were spelled in poop and there was a tiny plastic dick at the top of it.

whats a plotter?

the clock in the pics has the Swatch copyright, year & logo. How do you think it was enlarged??

Plotter is a cutter that makes the die-cut vinyl decals so if you know someone that makes those or somewhere that might be a good route. I know a lady that makes custom one-off die cut stickers if you need anything.

As for the enlargement... I would just recreate it in Photoshop or Illustrator.
