Furniture company BBDW have been known for combining retro with post-modern in their designs.
Combining raw metal, wood and hours of elbow grease, BBDW has developed a must-have clock for any home decor enthusiast.
Although they look distinctly retro, the guts inside are entirely modern (despite that fact you're paying for its craftsmanship on the outside). The BBDW Nixie desk clock is the least expensive of the series and starts at $2,500.
Implications - BBDW has created a superb series of modern minimalist timepieces that even the most aesthetically resistant will take the time to admire.
