Gift ClocksGift Clocks - A birthday gift of a clock may be wall clocks, mantel clocks, cuckoo clocks, satellite clocks or more sophisticated timepieces. There are wall clocks that have indoor and outdoor thermometers. Clock collectors like antique timepieces and appreciate clocks from around the world. More sophisticated timepieces, such as grandfather clocks, should be purchased from a reputable dealer that offers maintenance and warranties. These are some of the finest clockmakers: Howard Miller, Hermle, Ridgeway, and Kieninger.
Sundials are included in the list of clock gifts. They add interest to a garden and once set up offer an intersting way to tell time. Teach a child to use a sundial and you will see the delight in his or her eyes. You will be amazed how well a good sundial tells local sun time. There are tabletop models that may also be mounted on a post or the deck rail. Outdoor timepieces need to be water tight or made of brass to avoid rust.
