    Beyond cool. And the prices are quite reasonable.

    They look marvelous, though I rather wish they made MPH versions as well. I may still buy a Ferrari 328 clock, though.

    Has anyone seen one of these in person? The clock faces are simply images that are printed on paper, so I can't imagine that the illusion holds up when viewed at a distance of less than 10'.

    I was wondering about this as well. It looks like the bezels and name plate might be real metal rather than printed, but I am viewing with an iPhone at the moment. It's too bad they don't use nicer needles (hands).

    I don't think so. I believe it's a flat, two-dimensional image, mounted under glass, and only the hands and frame are three-dimensional. Of course, there's no way to tell the difference on either a phone or computer monitor because both are two-dimensional mediums.
