THE BUILD
168 pieces. One working clock.
Hours well spent
A calm evening of building, one gear at a time.
It doesn't go in a drawer
Twelve zodiac signs engraved on a dial made for the wall.
Build it. Then put it to work.
One AA battery for the time, two dials for day, date and month.
And that’s only half the story.
Why it beats the usual gift
The safe choice gets the job done. The right one feels like you actually know him.
| The usual gift | TheWoodGiant |
|---|---|
| Opened in four seconds | An evening of calm, hands-on building |
| Another screen, another charger | No screen, no charger, just one AA battery |
| Nothing to actually do with it | Day, date and month, right on the wall |
| In a drawer by January | A centerpiece for the living room |
| "I didn't know what to get you" | "You clearly thought about this" |

Features
How it's made

Made of natural, lightweight, and non-toxic material.
Multi-layered wood sheets are durable during and after building.
FAQs
How hard is it to build?
Every model is a press-fit build with illustrated step-by-step instructions, so no experience is needed. Build times run from about two to five hours depending on the model. Recommended for ages 14+, or younger builders with an adult.
Does it actually fire? What’s included?
Yes. Once built, it fires rubber bands at the included targets. Rubber bands and targets are already in the box, so you won’t need to buy them separately.
Do I need glue, tools or anything else?
No glue, no tools. Every piece press-fits by hand. The only extra is a touch of wax on the moving parts, and a candle stub or petroleum jelly works perfectly.
What if a piece is missing or breaks?
No worries. If a piece is missing or breaks during the build, just email us and we’ll send you the replacement part free of charge.
What if I get stuck during the build?
We’re here to help. Just email us at info@thewoodgiant.com with the step or piece you’re having trouble with and our support team will help you through it.
When will it arrive?
Orders ship from the U.S. and typically arrive within 2–7 business days. Shipping is free, and you’ll receive a tracking number as soon as your order ships.
The first gift for my wife that I got right! :D Fun to assemble and beautiful once hung in our Living room
Complex assembly but has very good instructions with lots of exploded diagrams and illustrations. Assembled in an evening. Loved the finished product and very pleased with purchase
It has been in perfect condition, has a wood smell and looks good quality. It includes glue and a small leaf of limar. The instructions are in English and well explained. The tab comes all together p the tificates, when I took the photos I had already taken them out. The clock works with an AA battery not included. I'm very happy with the purchase.
I really loved putting it together. It took me almost 3 hours. Didn’t break any pieces, they were cut out very well! I didn’t have any lubricant so I used paraffin wax on the gears. We will see how it works out.
Lots and lots of fun to build and mess around with! Great gift idea!
Cool watches on the quartz mechanism and manual calendar
What I liked, the challenge. What I disliked, that I can't get the gears to engage without binding and even if I could, too precarious hanging on the wall to attempt the day, date and month changes.
It is a beautiful wall decoration though.
Gifted to my mother-in-law for her birthday and immediately bought another one for me! It’s just too entertaining and lovely not to buy one!
This is the 5th item I have ordered from thewoodgiant. The products are great quality and they all kept my Dad occupied for days. Once built it was gifted to my neice and she loves it.
I got this for my dad, after he has already loved two previous kits, and it didn’t disappoint! He really enjoyed putting it together. The quality and detail is excellent as always and once assembled it is brilliant.... Would recommend to anyone who enjoys puzzles or construction kits.
It is a truly magnificent clock. These details are really beautiful. There are some spare parts for the smaller ones. It would be magnificent if the date/month gears turned by self... but you can't have everything ;)
The clock was easy to assemble following the pictorial instruction sheet without tools or glue. The clock,made from a wood like laminate material is quite large and impressive and looks good on my living room wall and it is keeping good time.I enjoyed making it.
I love this clock anyone who comes into my home admire and complement on how unusual it is.
I had great joy in making it up and it keeps perfect time.
Giving five stars are not enough if I could I would give at least ten star's love it so much
I only gave it 4 star because month and day are manually moved and not geared to auto change. Product was a great build, about 4 hr build.
Easy to build. Great educational value for children, but building needs to be supervised . Great item for adults and teenagers.
