This is an Ed Hardy clock. It has the neon light around the inner rim (when it's plugged in). I just like it and the fact that it stands out like a sore thumb in my house is even nicer.

Thanks for the love, kerry10456. :)
Your welcome, if you haven't noticed, I really like timepieces, LOL
Hello kerry10456. Yes, I noticed you like timepieces! This one keeps pretty good time. Even if it didn't, the face if cool.
Thanks bellin68! I like Ed Hardy stuff as well :) Thanks for the love!
Thanks for the love officialfuel and mikielikesigns2!!
Thanks for the love mrmajestic1 and bruce99! :)
You're very welcome purpledog. It's a very neat clock. Does the neon still work? I bet it looks even more awesome all lit up. (:
Hi Bruce99. Yes the neon light works. It really does look nice when it's lit up. Definitely adds a "sparkle" to the room!
pupledog, If you ever need any info on vintage "character" timepieces, I might know someone who can help. This clock is super and truely a future collectors item. All of Hardy's works will indeed be sought after.Times have changed from when some of us were younger. Cartoons and superheros have been replaced with fantasy art and the styling of renouned tattoo artist. That's not a bad thing, just a change. Thanks again for sharing this wonderful clock.
Hi kerry10456. Thanks for the info. You are always so helpful and informative. I really appreciate it. I'm getting kinda "long in the tooth" so it's fun seeing the new stuff. As I get older I seem to have more of an appreciation for a variety of things and eras.
Hi scandinavian_pieces! Thanks so much for the love!! :) I am really enjoying this site. Wish I had a bottomless pocketbook. Yes, this is my little dog. She just had her 8th birthday. Her name is Misty Blue. Thanks for your comment.

Hi. She is a blue chihuahua and without a doubt the most loving, sweet dog you can imagine. We've always had large dogs (and loved them madly, of course) but decided to adopt Misty several years ago. We travel a lot and she's very portable :) So glad you like the clock!
Carmen
Thanks, scan :)
Thanks for the love Marc112! :)
