This item was created like an old fashioned piece of industrial art.   Made out of a die cast metal housing and with aluminum accents on the tower that protrudes from the base to show the time in 18 cities around the world: Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, New York, Honolulu, Paris, London, Rio, Hong Kong, Moscow, Auckland, etc.

Just spin the base in either direction and you will see the time on the upper most LCD change right before your eyes showing you the time in the different city every time you stop the dial.  The second LCD shows you the temperature.  The bottom LCD show you a monthy calandar.
