To be honest, I don't think staring at a pond is something reserved for seniors only -- in fact, I find it refreshing for the mind -- but if you're the type who can't bother going outside, the Pond Clock will go from the park to your home.
Clockeee is the manufacturer behind the Pond Clock. It's got a very basic design, but its subtlety reflects the simple joy of watching Koi fish and ducks hanging out in the pond. The circular clock is made from water-stained Baltic birch plywood, a Quartz clock’s white hour, black minute and red second hands. Visually, the puddled shapes of the wooden pieces will definitely remind you of lily pads and ripple effects that you'd see in a pond. It's a refreshing clock that plays on minimalism at its best.
