Vintage alarm clock Ugears

Driiinn! It’s time to wake up, the last century! Once upon a time, before cell phones and digital alarms, there was once a fantastic device called an alarm clock, with two bells mounted on it, which were struck by an oscillating hammer. You wound the clock with a ratchet wrench, set the alarm hand for the time you wanted to wake up, and when that clock time reached the alarm hand, the bells would ring until you turned it off. Can you believe that such an amazing, simple yet clever mechanism ever existed?

The Vintage Ugears alarm clock is a charming throwback, a decorative reminder of the mechanical alarm clock placed on the nightstand at your parents’ or grandparents’ house. Whenever you move the large gear to the side, the hands of the alarm clock rotate and the bells ring, giving the wooden model of the clock the distinctive “click” sound of the alarm clock. The clock actuators are oriented so that a full rotation of the minute hand advances the clock by one position. The front of the watch features design elements including the sun, plants, curls and a progressive sundial, and they sit on pillars that give the entire model an attractive architectural structure.

The Vintage Alarm Clock is a complementary and companion piece to the Steampunk Clock from the Ugears catalog. Both have sculptural and decorative fittings, combining steampunk style with a slight hint of Venetian appeal. Both models are rated “Easy” for beginners or new builders, and both offer a great decorative advantage and will blend perfectly together on your shelf or table. No special glue or tools are needed to assemble this clock model, just push the pre-cut parts out of their wooden boards and secure them together, with a little sanding and wax to make the cogs work without any problems.

This wooden model alarm clock is not only an attractive look piece, but also includes dynamic movement and sound elements, including the careful layout of the minutes and hours and the amazing inclusion of the loud alarm. Ugears 3D Puzzles, DIY Model Collection, Automatic Machines, Robots, Wooden Puzzle Boxes and STEM Lab Models are known worldwide for their clever mechanical actions and charming and unexpected extra touches. The vintage alarm clock expands our collection of easy-to-assemble models, making it a great gift idea for kids and adults looking for a fun and relatively easy DIY project at home on a rainy day.
