It's not the prettiest or coolest looking item in the world, but let's just say this:
It's a conversation piece.
The History of Golf Balls Clock is literally what it sounds like: a desk clock in (what looks to be) a cherry wood finish with analog movement and Roman numeral numbers. However, it also charts the history of the development of the golf ball in five stages.
It is honestly one of those pieces that someone may look at and read the little brass plaque and simply say, "Huh. That's interesting." But not much else. While unique, I'm not positive I would spend this price on a clock like this new -- but instead could see myself finding at a garage sale for a few bucks, offering $1.50 and putting it on my desk as a trophy of good haggling skills.
I didn't see any other features such as alarms, and the balls were fixed to it pretty securely so I couldn't pull one off and use one of them in a pinch.
Since I wasn't crazy about this item, I honestly looked for another golf-themed desk clock that I would recommend instead. Not much out there. Looks like I know what I'm going to invent next...
