do you think this would be cool? i’m going to buy 24 analog clocks and put them on my wall, also how do you think i should label them, and where would i find the names of all the timezones?
thanks!!
I love the idea.
For the labels, I would suggest going to the local engraving shop and having them engrave some labels for you.
As far as the names go, I wouldn’t use the name of the time zone (i.e., mountain time, pacific time), as some of those names would be long, and they really don’t sound right.
Instead, I would suggest finding the largest, or most popular, city in each time zone and having that name on the label. Your labels would be…Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Dallas, New York, etc.
Very kewl – here’s a selection -

24 cheap analogue clocks, dymo label printer, map of the world and look for the biggest well known capital city on the date line. London GMT in the middle.
