Know before you buy
The clock has a total diameter of 43¼ inches. Because it features a deconstructed design, you will need a significant amount of clear wall space to accommodate its full scale.
You can choose between a 4-piece or 12-piece configuration. The 4-piece option offers a more minimalist, abstract look, while the 12-piece version provides a more traditional reading of the time.
Yes, assembly is required. Since the time signals are installed individually, you will need to measure and mount each piece precisely to ensure the clock is accurate and visually balanced.
The Merlin I uses a reliable quartz movement. This ensures accurate timekeeping while requiring only standard battery power to operate.
Yes, you can select from black, white, red, or stainless steel finishes for the hands. This allows you to create a high-contrast look or a more monochromatic aesthetic depending on your wall color.
The chrome finish is durable and designed for longevity. To keep it looking its best, simply wipe the signals occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
