About This Work
QLOCKTWO EARTH 90 Universe Moon Gold Limited Edition24.75k Yellow Gold and Platinum leaf alloy
QLOCKTWO EARTH 90 Universe Moon Gold surfaces radiate a magical, shimmering quality, evoking the ethereal brilliance of our celestial companion. The 23.75k Yellow Gold with Platinum produces a warm surface that resides between the two materials in luster and hue, a tribute to precious metals and the cosmos. As with all Creator’s Edition variants, Moon Gold features laser-cut letters that display time in five-minute increments. Lunar phases are also associated with the passage of time, and the surface of this variant invokes the moon’s magic as its precision technology keeps time here on earth. Moon Gold EARTH 90 is a limited edition of 90 worldwide and is paired with an elegant midnight blue body from the Universe Edition. Each work is unique and numbered. It is available also as an EARTH 45 (17").
MATERIALS
All QLOCKTWO EARTH 90 works consists of a wood clock matrix corpus (body) with adjustable brilliant LEDs and a Front Cover, that together, light up words to tell time. The text displays time in 5-minute increments, while 4 perimeter dots light up to signify the 1-4 minutes in-between. Front Covers are available in over 20 different languages in stainless steel with laser cut letters in a variety of finishes from custom RAL powder coated to 24k gold leaf covered, gold & silver, raw iron, hand-rusted steel and vintage copper or metamorphite. Like any work of art, QLOCKTWO slows down time and is a pleasure to observe and contemplate.EARTH 90 Front Covers are bolted in place (with the exception of slate variants). Thought they are removeable, extra special care is required for precious metal leaf works.

The Creator's Edition series consists of Rust (hand-rusted steel), Metamorphite (slate), Glintscape (slate), Vintage Copper (patinated coated copper), 24k Yellow Gold Leaf Covered, Platinum, and 12k White Gold Leaf & Oxidized Silver and Moon Gold variants.

Pre-Sale Questions
-
Can the wall models be wall mounted with a hidden cable?
Yes, most of our customers directly wire both works (with an electrician), but each also can be plugged directly into an outlet. The EARTH 45's textile power cable is designed for display and comes in 7 different colors. QLOCKTWO ships with all necessary electrical components for either type of installation. MOON is powered by a rechargeable battery and does not require wiring.
-
Can you send samples?
Yes, this is part of our business. If you are not 100% certain which variant you want, please contact us for samples so you can see variants in person—in your home or office.
-
How is QLOCKTWO pronounced?
"Clock Two"
-
I am not sure which size is best for my space.
Please contact us before purchasing. We can help in several ways: schedule a video call showing us your space; send a photo and we can photoshop different options into your space; request a scaled print to position on your wall.
-
Are any of the QLOCKTWO models battery operated?
The MOON editions are, the EARTH editions are not. Each EARTH model has a 24 hour battery reserve should you lose power temporarily. If you have any electrical concerns, please contact us.
-
Are you an authorized retailer?
Yes. We work closely with and order directly from all of our makers.
-
Is the time difficult to set?
No. There are 3 buttons: hour, 5 minute increments, and 1 minute increments. You can also set the time with an app.
-
Can you ship to locations outside of North America?
No
-
Will I be able to see the time on a white Front Cover?
Yes, looking at light Front Covers online is misleading. We are yet to have a client return a Front Cover because they couldn't read the time. When you look at a light Front Cover online, both the opaque front cover and the lit numbers are formed by LEDs. The reality is very different in person. Hold an opaque piece of white paper next to this white screen. What happens? The white paper appears much darker than the screen, even though both are 'white'. There is plenty of contrast to read the lit words on a QLOCKTWO with a white front cover.
-
How long do LEDs last?
Though technology is constantly improving, today's LEDs last approximately 50,000 hours (or 6 years of continuous operation before decreased luminosity). If your work is in a second home or you are away for long periods of time, you can always unplug or turn off the work (discuss this request with your electrician before wiring directly). Setting the luminosity to auto-adaptive or a lower luminosity level will also increase the lifespan. When your LEDs reach the end of their life, there is a very reasonable circuit replacement program. It is important to us that when our work is installed in your good home, it stays there.
-
How long does the motor on the MOON last?
The motor used is rated to last 30 years, but considering it only makes a quarter turn a day, it should be even longer.
-
Why would I order a black corpus (clock body) instead of a white one?
You only see less than 1" of the side of the EARTH 45 model (and slightly more on a EARTH 90) when it's wall mounted—and only from an angle. However, the black corpus looks elegant with several variants. We strongly suggesting pairing it with the Metamorphite (it gives the illusion of a thick piece of slate). A black corpus also works well with the Hand-Rusted, Raw Iron, Platinum and Black Pepper finishes. If you are displaying the work on a table, consider that the back of the work might be on display too, so even more or less black might be desirable (Metamorphite, Glintscaps and Precious Metal finishes can not be displayed desktop). Currently, far less black corpuses are produced than white, so the price is a little higher. Custom colors are also available.
-
My purchase is a gift and it will not arrive in time from Germany. What can we do?
We have solutions depending on the situation; please contact us.
-
How high should I hang the work? Is it easy to install?
Unless it's a tall work, we recommend hanging art with a vertical center point of around 55" from the floor. Some galleries prefer 58". We are aware people tend to hang art higher in their homes. If everything is hung on the higher side in you home, stick with your home's rules. The EARTH 45 is easy for one person with hanging experience to install, while the 90 and 180 models require multiple people and experience hanging heavy objects. Most states require you to hire a licensed electrician for direct wiring.
