Sturnus clock

Explore Sturnus clock, a unique creation in the field of Nixie clocks, designed by Daniil Kondratyev and complemented by Dalibor's nixie tubes and electronics.

Only one piece

Our original intention was to make a small clock series. The production turned out to be extremely difficult, mainly because of the use of heavy hard steel. The rolled plates were slightly bent and had to be ground flat and all assembled together. The 40kg of steel took a month to grind. This weight also forced us to be very creative in packaging for shipment to Mexico. It was the first shipment over such a distance that we had to deal with. We gained so much valuable experience.
Because of the difficulty of the production process, we ended up staying with just one manufactured piece. Thus Sturnus is totally unique in the world of nixie clocks. The Sturnus clock was done under a jointly founded studio Glowguardian, project of Daniil and Dalibor.

Electronics

For the first time on this clock, we experimented with integrating a Wi-Fi connection and app-based controls. This experience was later utilized in our other clock models.
