A wall clock that charms with its shadows

While more and more people are checking the time on their smartphones these days, wall clocks are necessary in that anyone can quickly grasp the time, and they are also important for interior design. Especially in families with children, clocks are often used to encourage them to behave, so high visibility is a key point to consider when choosing a clock.

WESTERSTRAND, which has been manufacturing clocks in Sweden for more than 100 years, is a manufacturer of public clocks in Sweden, and its attractive wall clocks are designed to be easily seen from a distance. The simple design with no unnecessary decoration and a red second hand makes this clock a good choice for both home and office use.

Designing shadows

With a simple dial without numbers, this wall clock QUARTZ CLOCK OFFICE has a clean, thin scale and a written logo, giving it a more subtle impression than A-FAC and H-FACE. The small "MADE IN SWEDEN" under the numeral 6 also shows the desire of WESTERSTRAND, which has been manufacturing watches in Japan since its establishment.

WESTERSTRAND's wall clocks are said to design even the shadows. The secret lies in its form. The back of the movement cover protrudes, creating shadows when hung on the wall, giving it a three-dimensional appearance. The shape of the shadow changes depending on the way daylight comes in, so the shadow also gives the viewer a sense of the passage of time throughout the day.

The movement of the second hand is a "tick-tock" type that advances second by second, making it easy to read the movement of the second hand and convenient when you want to know the time precisely. The design allows it to be used in any interior design, making it a great wall clock not only for home use, but also as a gift for housewarming or wedding gifts. Available in two sizes: Φ230 and Φ300. If you are not sure about the size, make a circle of each size on a piece of paper and stick it on the wall, then look at it from various angles to find the size that fits your room best.

Long-loved Scandinavian design
WESTERSTRAND, a Swedish-born watch brand, is a long-established factory that has been making watches for over 100 years since its establishment in 1906. The company began by manufacturing replacement parts for clocks, but after a while it began to produce clocks for towers, train stations, and so on. Production later expanded, and in 1936 the company began producing wall clocks and pendulum clocks.

WESTERSTRAND clocks are mainly used in public institutions such as railroads, hospitals, and schools, and their simple, highly legible design dials have remained virtually unchanged since the 1960s. Today, WESTERSTRAND produces not only analog clocks, but also many digital display clocks such as sports scoreboards, many of which are exported to the world.
