The Infinity Instruments Retro Metal Wall Clock has a great mid-century institutional look with a sturdy metal case  that comes in a some cool retro colors like and has raised ribs in the sides that give it a vintage look almost like a classic automobile. The face is a nice off-white and bright with large modern  numbers that make it super readable even from a distance. I have seen them in a large assortment of colors and they look great anywhere you put them

The hands are the same color as the body which can sometimes make them hard to see depending on what color you buy. Unlike any of the clocks of this style from the time, these don’t feature a second-hand but the trade-off is that it makes no second-hand ticking and runs smoothly and silently. I remember taking tests in elementary school with a similarly retro, institutional clock (although not nearly as colorful) loudly ticking away to the point of distraction.

The thing people seem to notice first about these cool retro-styled clocks is how well crafted they are. They are made from thick gauge metal and have the same heft that a true vintage clock from that era might have but the actual movement is thoroughly modern and it keeps really accurate time. The dome is made from real glass, not plastic (which can scratch) like most clocks of this price range.

It makes a great kitchen clock but it really looks great in a bathroom, office or any room. They look especially authentic with a retro home decor or retro kitchen appliances. The cool thing about this authentic looking retro clock is that it is at a very affordable price. I have found them running from around $23.99 to $54.99 on average depending on what finish you get it in. Here is the best price I found for the Infinity Instruments Retro Metal Wall Clock in Orange.
