Large Metal Wall Clock

Buying Guide

Large metal wall clocks can be both decorative and practical. They can be placed in rooms or areas where knowing the correct time is essential. They are made even more practical if they connect digitally with the World Clock, which keeps them in time with all other clocks without effort on the part of the owner. The large numbers are usually easy to read from a distance, and they can be styled decoratively to go with your décor.

Who can benefit from a large wall clock?

Basic wall clocks are often found in public places such as gyms, school hallways, bus stations or other transportation hubs because in these places knowing the correct time can be vital to someone who is traveling. A large wall clock can work well in your home, too, because you and possibly your family are often challenged by the need to stay on schedule. An analog clock with easy-to-see hands and large numbers can take the guesswork out of checking the time for people who wear glasses and can be a handy tool for teaching elementary aged family members how to tell time. Clocks can be decorator themed for your preferred décor and range from steadfastly basic round clocks to an amazing modern clock with a silver art novae background theme.

What wall clock designs make telling time easier?

Large LED word clock for the numerically challenged

For some people, numbers just do not work. You could say that for them numbers just do not compute – ever. Or you could have a literary household member who just thinks better in words than numbers. For them, a large LED word clock that displays the time in words such as, “It is Five Minutes Until Four” can help them join the world of people who are always on time. Or you could use it in conjunction with an analog clock or even a digital clock for people who have trouble telling time, or in a classroom where students are learning to put time into words.

Giant digital wall clock for the analog challenged

In our modern age, there are many people who have simply become accustomed to reading time from a digital clock. They have to stop and think about digital. A giant digital wall clock, complete with month, date and day of the week as well as the current time. This is also an excellent tool for shut-ins and stay-at-homes who might become out of touch with the date and day of the week. Even for people who work a set schedule, it can help track whether it is Wednesday or Thursday or if you’ve finally reached that all-important part of your week: Friday.

Windmill clock for the visually impaired

The hands point to the blades of a classic Old West windmill. Each blade is marked with Roman Numerals. The digits are raised, so if someone in your household not only loves windmills, in whatever capacity but also has trouble seeing the numbers can be “read” by touching them.
