Be Excellent To Each Other

Yo!

My mum is looking for a nice mantlepiece clock with hands, but doesn't tick, but we can't find one. You'd think that somewhere, there would be a clock that doesn't tick, but it seems that ticking is a desired feature. You can even pay more for clocks that tick louder.

Is there a clock that doesn't tick(, and preferably doesn't make an ominous rumbling sound)?

She suggested a digital photo frame that has an analogue clocky screen mode... but I can't find one of them either. PDAs have too small a screen and are expensive.

Don't look nice but the silent/quiet movements are available: http://www.walshbrothers.co.uk/Update/silent_alarm_clocks.htm

Nixie clock nixie clock nixie clock!

Oh wait, no hands.

Ooh thanks! That looks like the closest (and cheapest) I'm gonna get. :/
