Default R75 special wall clock

Dear forum members,

I am curious what you think of my latest creation. Because I not only want to be able to enjoy the beauty of our beautiful cars outdoors, but as a fan also want to have a beautiful Rover 75 element indoors, I made this clock.



A special and original piece of Rover 75 on the wall! The original speedometer plate from the car, switchable amber-colored lighting, inlaid in solid olive-wood body. An automatic and quiet running timepiece, so no ticking clock but smoothly running hands. The hands can be made in the original color of the car, in this case Moonstone Green.



I want to make these clocks exclusively by order and on request for the enthusiast. Everything is exclusively handmade using high-quality parts. So there is a price tag to these clocks. I want enthusiasts to have something left over to their beloved cars and hope to create a beautiful functional and special memory of your Rover 75s to enjoy every day.

If you are also interested in such a clock, send me a personal message.

Many greetings,
Emiel

Hi and thanks to you all, glad to read that you like it! I am also very happy with the result. I should be able to make variaties on it, with different wood, dials like the tachometer dial instead of the milage one, also very nice or with a ZT dial I guess. I will get in touch via the PM. Costs are also depending on your whishes because it is custom made.

Many greetings,

Emiel

Emil, it may be better to give people an idea of cost for what we can see.
You would not want to be inundated with Pm's all asking the same thing

Congratulations, a worthy product which will be much admired. Photo shows my daughter’s self-made gift to me some 30 years ago which has by now suffered some losses due to removals with my job. P6 connoisseurs will recognise the standard wheel trims.
