This unique handmade clock was made from actual recycled bike wheels; that's why there are some minor imperfections such as scuffing scratches etc but little imperfections sometimes make them perfect for you. Very clever idea to make use of rubbish as beautiful and useful wall decoration.

This clock was made from a recycled aluminum road bike wheel. The wheel mounts directly to the wall through the hub using a hollow wall anchor and gives the illusion that it is floating off the wall. The clock movement is a high torque German quartz movement and is attached to a set of rear cassette gears to conceal the movement. The movement is attached to the wheel by hanging it off of a screw coming out of the hub, and runs on 1 AA battery, included. The wheel measures roughly 25.5 inches in diameter
