Retro clock on lamps Sputnik-1

If you are afraid of breaking an expensive nixie clock with big IN-14 or IN-18 tubes, we can offer you a solution. There is a model called
retro clock on lamps “Sputnik-1” - it has got small IN-12 nixie tubes which are half-hidden in the case.

IN-12 tubes are arched, so we designed a special frame that both protects the tubes and accomplishes the image of a vintage radiogram.

If you prefer light colors of wood in your interior we recommend “Sputnik-1” in oak case. Although this model is one of the most popular our clocks, each example looks unique due to natural wood veins. The case is assembled of 3 elements and each of them is cut out of a solid piece of wood, polished and waxed. The surface is warm and smooth. “Sputnik-1” won’t disturb you even if you leave it switched on during the night, because it’s absolutely silent (like any other our clocks, actually).

The features are:
- Two sets of different alarms
- User-adjustable tube brightness level
- Preserving the time counting even during a power outage.
- User-switchable Sleep mode to expand the tubes' lifespan
- Switchable LED light illumination
- Solderless replacement of the tubes
- Activation of the current date indication on the display
- American and European date indication format.

A “Sputnik-1” set includes a standard brown cardboard box, a cable, an adapter, and a user’s guide. A personal certificate isn’t included.

The clock is about 8 on 2,5 inches and 3 inches high, made of oak.
