Product Description

The Genesis range of clocks are fully featured contemporary Nixie Clocks, contained within a hi-tech 3D printed case. Each case takes 12 hours to produce and is then hand finished before the clock is assembled. The clock uses 6 original German Z570M nixie tubes dating back to the 1980s.

The Genesis displays time and date, and also incorporates a full color lighting system under the tubes for an added effect. It boasts auto night shut down, 12 or 24 hour mode selection, programmable colon separators, and even an alarm.

Smoked features a plate beneath the tubes that lets you gaze inside and underneath, while Black offers a more opaque plate.

Does this model have an alarm?

Yes, this model has an alarm.

Why do the tubes go/last 20ish yrs?

The tubes do not generate any heat, so there is nothing to burn out. The glow is produced by exciting Neon gas with a voltage, rather than anything incandescent or with a filament.

Paul Parry

Bad Dog Designs founder and electronics engineer Paul Parry grew up dismantling and sometimes successfully reassembling all kinds of electronics and devices. His first Nixie tube clock was assembled on a whim—without even realizing the appeal of the steampunk aesthetic he was creating. The passion project has since evolved into a full-blown entrepreneurial endeavor, employing both Paul and his wife Karen full time. Bad Dog Designs earned a Merit award in the International Arts & Crafts Design Awards in 2016. Paul is also a recognized artist by the UK's Craft Council, and works as an artisan on the BBC's "Money for Nothing" TV series.
