Abstract: A vertical clock which indicates the time of day from the vertical position of colored cubes rather than from conventional hands on a numbered face. A power source, as an electric clock, has the minute hand removed, and through a gear, movement of the hour hand turns a plate from which there are suspended twelve strings of paper cubes, there being 12 cubes per string. Certain ones of the cubes are appropriately colored to indicate time at a designated position. A pendulum cube, dangling in the center of the others, is driven by the second hand, and it revolves accordingly.
