ZIN18 Nixie Tube Clock — Black Aluminium Case & Gold Bases
The clock features a durable black anodised aluminium case paired with elegant gold anodised tube bases, creating a striking visual contrast that emphasizes each glowing digit. Six authentic ZIN18 Nixie tubes are powered by efficient electronics that ensure long life and stable brightness.
It displays hours, minutes, date, month, and year in both 12-hour and 24-hour formats, and supports automatic time synchronization through Wi-Fi (NTP network). Built-in memory preserves the correct time even during power interruptions.
Every ZIN18 clock is hand-assembled and individually tested by Millclock engineers to guarantee accuracy, reliability, and visual perfection. Each Nixie tube is made from glass and metal elements with millimeter precision, filled with a noble gas mixture that creates the iconic orange glow discharge — a living expression of electricity.
The black and gold combination enhances both vintage and modern interiors: minimalist desks, loft apartments, or classic wood spaces. This clock is not just a timekeeper — it is a piece of technological art, a collector’s item, and a symbol of craftsmanship.
Ideal for engineers, designers, and lovers of retro electronics, the ZIN18 Nixie Tube Clock connects analogue beauty with digital precision.

Absolutely fantastic! The work that goes into making these fascinates me and so it is brilliant to finally have one now working away gently illuminating the corner of my room. Thank you!
This is an absolutely amazing work of art. Really beautiful design. The packaging and delivery was exceptional. Thanks so much for producing this lovely clock.
Works well and looks super cool. My fiancé really enjoyed this Christmas gift! for reference, the shop got it in the mail within five days or so and shipping to the US took about two and a half weeks. worth it in my book!
The quality of the clock is really high, however I was little disappointed it didn't come with the box and carry case pictured in one of the photos. However I am still happy with the clock it is exactly as in the photos, looks amazing!
Great product! looks great in my living room. happy with the purchase.
Extremely high Quality! This Nixie Tube clock is really a piece of Art! Smooth Transaction and fast delivery to Germany via UPS. Keep in mind that import taxes are due depending on the price. Very good Service and helpful answers via e-mail within hours.
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. 🙂
My son wanted this for the past 10 years and was ecstatic when he received it. We all can't stop watching it. It was everything and more than expected.
