Long-D Dual-Time Wall Clock
Hongkong-Taipei based designer Kit Men Keung has created a new dual-time wall clock for Taiwanese brand Verso Lab.
Intended to allow users to read the times of twin time zones in a visually subtle style while maintaining a regular relationship with someone on the other side of the globe. The color contrast of the secondary clock hands has been delicately reduced to appear like a shadow on the face, acting as a conscious reminder of the distance between the user and his/her connections abroad. With a passing glance the user can quickly and easily attain the information from the clock.
This piece is available in both square and circular versions in either white or charcoal gray. Dimensions (W x H x D): 25cm x 25cm x 3.8cm.

As a member of an intercontinental relationship, I love this. We’ve set up a couple virtual clocks in the past, but I prefer the tangible. And boy is this lovely. Wouldn’t mind getting one of these for Christmas.
Nice. A minor draw back might be that there are a few places in the world where the time does not differ by the hour but by the half-hour. Check out this chart:

I can’t tell from these images if each time zone gets two hands or if they share the minute hand.
Very beautiful and thoughtful!
