Six Soviet IN-14 Nixie tubes — hours, minutes and seconds — in a solid walnut case with brass.
The tubes
With seconds on the display there is always a digit changing. The IN-14 is the classic Nixie tube: a warm orange glow from a neon-filled glass tube.
The tubes are new old stock from Soviet factories, never used. They stopped being made decades ago, and every year there are fewer of them. Each one is tested before it goes into a clock. They sit in sockets, so a tube can be changed by hand, with no soldering.
Living with it
A blue backlight that switches off, an alarm, 12 or 24-hour time, and a backup battery that keeps the time through a power cut. Between 01:00 and 04:00 the clock runs through every digit so the tubes wear evenly, and the backlight rests from 22:00 to 07:00.
Built by hand in Ukraine and covered for twelve months: if a tube fails inside that year, the replacement is free.
