I once saw a clock but it was made into a coffee/end table. It was really big and I absolutely loved it. I love watches and this was right up my alley. It was black with roman numerals. It had a glass top. My house is decorated in a country theme so it wouldn't have gone very well with everything else I have but it would look great in an office or a more formal living space. It definitely would be the talk of the room that it was in. If I can remember correctly it was quite expensive as well. Maybe someday I will find one that is more country like and when my kids are a little older so that nothing goes through the glass top. It was a really cool piece of furniture.
