From the makers of the Time Table, the Wave Clock is a unique time-piece with ball bearings that move around the surface to show hours and minutes, using magnets hidden in the base. With the use of spheres and a waveform surface, it illustrates the principles on wave-particle duality (whatever it is - I got poor grades in physics).
Implications - It might be a little confusing at first, especially when you just want to know what time it is, but with a marking to show where the 12 o'clock position is you'll manage to figure things out. Even if you can't manage to decipher the time off of this clock, there's still no denying that it's a sweet piece.
