Description

ZIN18 Nixie Clock — Black Base, Gold Tubes & Tinted Glass Dome

The ZIN18 Nixie Clock by Millclock combines modern electronics with the timeless charm of classic neon displays. Each clock is handcrafted in Ukraine and designed as a functional art object where technology meets refined aesthetics.

This edition pairs a black anodised aluminium base with silver ZIN18 Nixie tubes, protected by a tinted glass dome. The elegant contrast between black and silver, softened by the darker glass, creates a more atmospheric and distinctive look with added depth and character.

The numerals are formed by precisely manufactured cathodes inside each tube, illuminated by warm neon light. The electronics support Wi-Fi time synchronisation, automatic NTP updates, RGB backlighting, 12-hour and 24-hour modes, and smooth anti-poisoning animations to help preserve the tubes over time.

The “Black Base & Silver Tubes Edition” is more than a clock – it is a technical art piece, carefully assembled and tested by Millclock engineers for long service life and dependable performance.

My dad loved his birthday present - easy to set up and use! Worked perfectly and the manual was very good

Fast delivery. Took just 8 working days from purchasing to arrival here in Germany. No delay due to import duty and VAT which UPS allowed me to pay online. Was very well packaged and protected from travel damage. Setup was easy. EU-power adapter included. Looks much better in real life than on the photos. 🙂
