By


Looking for a good time? Here are six ways to keep time on your side, whether you’re springing forward or falling back.

2. Nelson Wheel Clock George Nelson, former design director for Herman Miller, created more than 150 clock designs, offering numerous ways keep an eye on the time. Get your big (or little) hands on one here: dwr.com

3. Memento Pocket Watch Memento’s first pocket timepiece is inspired by the chain and fob watches of the past, revised with modern simplicity. Encased in sandalwood or maple. Pocket one here: mementowatches.com

4. White & White Clock Based on Vadim Kibardin’s Black & White clock prototype, the White & White trims digital timekeeping nearly to the bone, leaving you nothing but time. Get it here: kibardindesign.com

5. Tabla Clock Henry Azzimonti’s Tabla has a chalkboard face with a handy built-in chalk drawer. Now it can be whatever time you want it to be. Chalk it up: madeindesign.co.uk
