Nauticalia

This unusual clock looks just like the space-saving multi-dial instruments you would find hanging on the bulkhead of a ship's bridge, or in the Captain's cabin, but is actually set up to stand on a bedside table - and incorporates a rather effective bell alarm. The three inset dials are barometer (air pressure), thermometer and hygrometer (humidity), with a fourth dial right in the centre for the alarm hand. It looks, and the alarm sounds, just like a mechanical clock but actually has a quartz movement - so you won't have to wind it up or adjust the time when you forget to. German-designed, uses one C battery (see 93196 below).
