At first glance this clock looks no different from any other, but upon closer inspection you’ll notice there isn’t a battery slot. That’s because its water (or any other electrolytic fluid like beer) powered. The clock comes to life – displaying the time and date – after the liquid reservoirs located in the back are filled.

for just $12.99.
