This clock is actually a cathode ray tube encased in 3/8" acrylic case. It comes with GPS time and the ability to display digital or analog clock faces.

There are a lot of programmable features in this clock, including settings pertaining to light, display, focus, etc. This is the prototype. It uses a SC200 clock board to display time in all its different forms.
