      beautiful item, really an eye catcher

      Louise 09/01/2023

      Une décoration hypnotisante pour la maison ! C'est un très bel objet, qui fascine, et donne envie de rester devant pour voir défiler les minutes. On dirait une maison pleine de vie. Nous n'attendons plus que de pouvoir la montrer à des invités pour leur faire deviner ce que c'est, et comment l'heure se lit. Côté technique, l'horloge est facile à monter, les pièces sont bien réalisées. C'est beau, poétique, amusant, innovant : bravo et merci !

      Depuis 3 ans dans notre salon, elle est formidable. Fonctionne parfaitement. Très ludique. Immense bravo aux créateurs français. Cela fait plaisir.

      I just got my clock! Just wanted to say out of the items I’ve bought in the past years this clock is just wonderful, your team did a fantastic job and it is so clever.

      Have a nice day!

      I found The City Clock while searching for Architectural Model kits the wooden 3D type but not child like think Frank Lloyd Wright or an Beautiful Victorian house.
      When I notice City house it was kind of the best of both worlds as it’s both beautiful and functional and so fun to make the brain learn a different clock. I received it about a week and a few days ago. I finally put it together today. I love it !

      A nice piece of work.
      A very elegant design, highly decorative and easy to build.
      A pleasure to look at with the perfect balance beauty and ‘nerd-factor’.
      I hope you will make more nice kits in the future.

      The City Clock Circuit Board works great, My twin 8 year old sons and I built a Lego house for it . Nice way to introduce them to binary numbers.
