Award Clocks for Career Milestones and Farewells
A clock is the rare award that keeps a job after the ceremony ends. It sits on a desk or a mantel and gets read every day, which is why buyers reach for one when the moment is a career milestone, a promotion or a farewell. Bodies on this page include optical crystal, rosewood, jade glass, black marble, aluminum, chrome and glass.
How the pieces differ
The clearest split is between clocks that show their movement and clocks that keep it out of sight. The Crystal Clock with Exposed Mechanical Movement leaves the mechanism visible through a 4.75 by 5.5 inch block with precision-cut beveled edges, and the Starfire Crystal Clock with Silver Skeleton Movement does the same at 7.25 inches tall. Wood and stone bodies read quieter. The Richelieu Mantle Clock sets brass accents against a burlwood and rosewood finish at 7.25 inches, and the Large Wedge Black Marble Clock drops a gold-finished quartz insert into a sloping black marble wedge whose veining varies piece to piece.
Sizes, decoration areas and methods
Many desk pieces land between 5 and 7 inches tall. Smaller crystal blocks run near 3 inches, and a handful reach 10 inches or more, including a 6 by 10.5 inch fused crystal triangle and the 9 by 12 inch Rosewood Plaque Clock With Starfire Crystal Plate, which hangs on a wall or stands on a desk. Decoration panels stay modest next to the bodies. A 2.25 by 3.5 inch crystal desk block carries a 1.5 by 1.5 inch panel, the exposed-movement crystal block takes 3 by 1 inches, and that rosewood plaque clock reaches 5 by 4 inches, the largest panel on the page. Deep etch is the most offered method here, laser engraving is used on pieces such as rosewood and aluminum bodies and metal plates, and full color digital printing is offered on several optical crystal pieces.
Who orders them
Buyers pick clock awards for career milestones, promotions and office presentations. Most items here are quoted from a single unit, so one gift does not need a batch behind it. A smaller group starts at six, which suits a round of presentations handed out on the same night.
