Hello and welcome to my new Nixie clock sale. A word on Nixie tubes.
For those who are not familiar with Nixie tubes, these are a display device that pre-dates LCD, LED and other modern displays. Found in many devices from calculators to military equipment, they are now predominantly used for the production of clocks and other artisan craft projects. They have become very popular due to their warm nostalgic glow and true form numerals.They make a lovely addition to any living space and are always a topic of conversation. Not all nixies are born equal.
Supplies of Nixie tubes are finite having not been produced for more than forty years. (there are a couple of exception). Depending on the original manufacture, the rarity and whether they are new old stock (NOS) or partly used will have a big impact on their value.
I strive to use only the best quality, best branded NOS tubes, this in turn ensurers that you the customer gets a clock that will give pleasure for many years. If you require a custom designed clock I can now offer this commissioned service.
Please contact me for more details. You are looking at the all new PV Electronics QTC+ (Quick Tube Change Plus) Nixie tube clock complete with in an all glass tinted plexiglass case.
