The clock spells the current time in words — for example, "It's half past ten", with four dots for the exact minutes.
With its brightness sensor working day and night, the wordclock adapts its glow to every light.
With four small dots that softly shine,
you can read each minute, right on time.
With four neat buttons in a line, you set the color, brightness and the time.
An eye-catcher in every room, as much art as it is a clock.
The matte black face is cut from 100% recycled acrylic, optically identical to new material, it simply had a life before this one.
A solid aluminium frame holds the face flat and true for decades, light enough to hang, rigid enough to never warp.
The English word clock in a living room, on a sideboard, and up close on the kitchen counter, matte black, soft light, nothing else on the wall.
Warm white, cool white, or one of five colours in between, set with the buttons on the side, so the clock always suits the room it's in.
The clock shows the time in English, exactly as you would say it: "It is a quarter past six."
Four small dots indicate 1, 2, 3 or 4 extra minutes beyond the word-phrase.
A light sensor dims the display at night and brightens it during the day.
Add your own logo or text to the face, perfect for a wedding, a housewarming, or a corporate gift.
Engraved clocks are made just for you — they are excluded from the 30-day return policy.

Every LumosClock is cut, wired and assembled by hand at the workbench in our Dutch workshop, with no production line, and no batch that ships before each clock reads the time perfectly.
We've been making LumosClocks this way since 2018, and if you ever have a question, you'll reach the maker directly, never an AI chatbot.
