When it comes to watches, nothing can beat the Swiss watches. Joining this reputation is a famous Swiss designer Matthias Pugin with his new creation called the “Switchital Clock”. Pugin’s Switchital Clock is not like any other ordinary clocks. It features a digital screen on which, letters for showing time are formed with small metal bars that are attached with small magnets underneath. Due to its unique time changing manner, the clock however, doesn’t show the seconds. It only displays the hour and minute. It’s quite fascinating to watch the clock change time.

With every single minute, some of the digital letters start to move or spread over the background and disappear in the frame and the new minute is displayed. The built-un magnets help this movement that starts pulling to the next position.

There is no information available regarding its release date or price. I am assuming that the Switchital Clock will be quite expensive considering that it is a Swiss clock. As for its quality, I can blindly trust any Swiss watches or clocks. So far I have no complaints with any of them.
