Any car lover will appreciate the Porsche 911 Tabletop Clock, seemingly taken directly from the dashboard of a very popular luxury vehicle. The cylindrical projection integrates a numbered dial that looks to mimic either a speedometer or a tachometer. This has been formatted to have the face of a familiar [analogue timepiece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a158w), employing the oscillating needle as an hour hand.

Within the [aluminum case](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-desk-clock), a black window towards the bottom displays the time and date digitally. Also incorporated into this iconic product is an alarm feature with an unusual, yet appropriate, alert. When your chosen wake-up time arrives, the Porsche 911 Tabletop Clock begins to rev like the engine of a powerful automobile.
