The clock melody 3 is the syncopated clock. not my grandfather’s clock

[@timelessmoments]

Oh my gosh, you’re right 😅😂 I don’t know how I even mixed those up…🤦‍♂️ Thank you for pointing that out!

[@OriMatricesBoardwalk2288]

Its hard taking your eyes off those models, they hold beautiful and lasting memories past and present as collectors. 😊

[@timelessmoments]

Exactly 🥹 You put it perfectly, Ori. Thank you for watching 😄

[@DrakeG51]

Nice! Most of your favorites are also on my compilation.

[@timelessmoments]

I was very selective about which ones I put batteries in when you visited 😂 I wanted to switch it up a little bit, so I included different songs and a couple of different clocks that didn’t make it in yours!

[@mbcommandnerd]

ALL of these are incredible clocks, but here’s what I like specifically about each one: -SSS Encore: Do I even need to explain why I like this one? It’s got SSS. Nuff said. :-) -Elfland: This has what might actually be the ONLY vertically splitting dial that Rhythm has ever made. This thing is truly one-of-a-kind, and I love it for that! -Éclore S: I’ve always admired this clock (and it’s pink version) for making a different style of SEIKO’S six-piece splitting dial; having the pieces come out of the clock’s sides makes it bloom like a flower on the hour! -Ceremonic: While I’ve never been a fan of the old 8-bit sound system and horrible motor noise of the older Rhythm clocks, I have to say that the way this one moves is pretty unique (just like Elfland). And the fact that it’s all driven by one motor is what makes it cool! -Glad Duo: Truly one of the BEST in this video, this clock is one of the coolest ones I’ve ever seen! It’s got invisible LEDs that only appear when they flash, it uses three colors for them instead of two, and it even has DANCING HANDS! -Angel Timecracker: It’s a Timecracker. They’re ALWAYS amazing! -DWS Crystal Bells: This one is all about sound, and boy does it deliver! This has some of the best sound of any Rhythm clock ever (DWS is honestly second only to SSS)! -Fantasy Sky M410: While the swinging pendulum that entirely surrounds this clock is beautiful on its own, it’s the sound that-once again-really takes the cake here! This plays some of the most beautiful melodies that Rhythm has ever produced in its history, and if you listen to it enough, you may start to cry tears of joy! -WSM Amsterdam: This is a WSM clock, and as such, it’s got Rhythm’s LEGENDARY Westminster Chimes!!! Add in a few melodies on top of that, and you can see why this clock is pretty cool! -DWS Kaleidoscope: Another one-of-a-kind masterpiece, this clock has a literal kaleidoscope behind the face, which makes the LEDs sitting behind that do some dazzling things! The dial movement is also impressive, being essentially a Blessing series-style dial, but the two halves turn AWAY from each other instead of WITH each other. Pretty impressive stuff right here! -Anthology Legend: The shear amount of moving parts on all clocks in the Anthology series is what makes them beautiful! The way the face slowly deconstructs itself and then does a graceful dance makes this entire series of clocks quite the spectacle to watch! -Reminisce: This clock is a unique one because it only plays Japanese songs. But the one it plays in this video actually helped me in a way! I’ve heard that exact tune several times before, but I never knew what the name of it was-until now! I can now confirm that it is called Shabondama! -Night View: It’s got dancing hands, need I say more? -Dream Cruise: This is another of the old, noisy ones that I don’t like all that much. However, for its time, this one actually has a decent sound system in it! -Palacio: Again, TIMECRACKER!!! -Pal Muse M435: The lone Citizen clock in this compilation, it has some of the best sou-NO. Don’t repeat yourself again, dude! Ugh. Anyways, it’s got impressive sound AND it looks really nice, so it’s a win-win! -Chronograph (Black/Silver): All the clocks in this series have GEARS, and boy do I love some exposed mechanical components on a clock or watch!!! Even if-in this clock’s case-they are just decorative and powered by a motor instead of a spring! Bonus points for the built-in thermometer and hygrometer, too! And that’s all of them! If I had to pick one as my favorite of favorites, I’d pick the Reminisce (6:50), just because it helped me find the name of that one song-which I thought I’d never know the name of! Also, correction: the Reminisce is ALSO a Citizen, so the Pal Muse isn’t the only one!

The Fantasy Sky M410 looks like something that would come out with DWS in the late 90/early 00s!

[@timelessmoments]

Thank you so much! I really like your explanations and hearing about why you like each model, too 😊 I enjoy seeing other people’s perspectives…I know that not everyone may agree with me, but we all see the world in our own unique ways. Some people actually don’t even like musical clocks at all. My favorites may be the complete opposite of someone else’s…but that’s what makes this hobby so special to me. So thank you for watching and thank you for your comment 😎😄

@@timelessmoments You’re very welcome! Musical clocks are one of my favorite things in the world! I’ve always loved mechanical stuff in general (like old music boxes, mechanical clocks and watches, etc.), and while most musical clocks run on batteries instead of spring or weight power, they are still mechanical marvels in their own right! And if you look around on KZbin for a bit, there ARE fully mechanical musical clocks out there (most of which are made by the Dutch, actually), which play melodies and strike the hour on bells! Here’s one such clock, that-while not made by the Dutch-is a good example of this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZy5f3eXpJ5sqJIsi=OsOnxrYoTDdLvlKo
