Puri Nixie Clock

This article was originally published as part of HackSpace magazine, which has since been incorporated into Raspberry Pi Official Magazine.
We’ve seen the beautiful work of Dalibor Farny before in HackSpace magazine, and it’s always a treat when he comes out with something new. This is the latest product from his medieval castle workshop: a six-digit, 3.2 kg, brand-new Nixie clock.
Unlike the old-stock Nixies that you may find on auction sites acquired from former Soviet warehouses, these Nixies come with a ten-year warranty. Also, unlike anything else we’ve seen using this technology, the clock comes with a phone app that enables you to set the time zone, time format, specify whether you want daylight-saving time, and more. And of course, it looks so, so nice.
