Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.1. Gisela Graham Blue Ship
£17, debenhams.com
A playful bit of kitsch with a distinct nautical feel – witness the ships and seagulls. Has easy-to-read red numbers, so ideal for kids.
2. Flap Analogue
£60, habitat.co.uk
The pleasing flip and modish face make this a well-known design classic beloved of banks and building societies the world over.
3. Diamantini & Domeniconi Tablita
£39, awhiteroom.com
The face is a chalkboard on which you can write sweet nothings (or else reminders to walk the pooch).
4. John Lewis Silver Bird
£50, johnlewis.com
A dainty little bird sits on the side of this open-faced black bar clock, as if it is has paused for a momentary sing-song.
5. Newgate Bullit
£65, selfridges.com
Rocket-age shape and the stark black Arabic numerals redolent of the Sixties. It's relatively hardy, too, in durable acrylic.
6. Riccio
£130, conranshop.co.uk
This has a pleasing down-home quality to it, the result, presumably, of the granny-like knitting which encases the face.
7. Lexon Side
£31, giftswithstyle.co.uk
Created to stick out proud from the wall or down from the ceiling. But you can mount it the old fashioned flat way, too.
8. John Lewis Silver Spike
£30, johnlewis.com
John Lewis describes this as looking like an exploded clock face, but we think it looks more like a snow flake.
9. Karlsson White Falling Numbers
£38.99, goclock. com
Seemingly all the numbers have slid down the face. Cool, but perhaps not the easiest to read.
10. Next Time Projection
£85, contemporaryheaven.com
Not, in the strictest sense, a wall clock, but it does project the time, date and year onto your wall.
