    Dear brain trust / hey guys,

    Following a kitchen renovation , Mrs Wiv and I are both getting fed up of glancing at a now empty piece of wall where formally a boggo clock was placed.

    Caveat: Yea, I've done the searching on here.

    So, I'm after recommendations for a decent wall clock. I've seen some Montblancs, the Junghans are interesting and in the right direction and I like them, so looking for other suggestions to go with a clean contemporary look.

    Not interested in those ' watch dealer clock ' / odd gigantor homages , Mrs Wiv would put the old thing back up in protest.

    Junghans Max Bill no question. eBay has older ones in different sizes.

    Another option is old school clocks converted to battery power. Lots on eBay, they need to be converted though. Or a Mondaine wall clock aka the Swiss Railway Clock.

    I just got a Seiko watch this week from Amazon. Mostly out of not finding anything I really liked went with this one.

    The Junhans Max Bill has tempted me :)

    Mondaine do wall clocks. Quite expensive but they do look nice if you want a minimilist look.

    Thanks for the suggestions, wasn't aware of the Mondaines , they will be taken forward for considerations. Will investigate the Seikos more too.
    @Mad Dog I tried the Speedmaster idea on the wall for Mrs Wiv....

    turns out I'm buying another new kitchen now.
