The Verbarius clock takes a fresh look at telling time. Instead of a round face or electronic numbers, its designers set out to display time the way people describe it. So, instead of reading 4:45, it reads 'a quarter to five.' And it can do it in any of five languages (additional languages are available for uploading via a USB port).
Its brick shape and simple lettering may not be for everyone, but fresh thinking about something so familiar as telling the time is a way to bring new awareness to a simple, daily act.
