One of the reasons I like it is that folks who see it don't know what it is. Once they figure out or are told that it is a clock they can't read it. Haha!

It'd take me a while, I must admit. I can do binary, but I'm not used to it.
...No, I take it back. I doubt I could read it. Not sure what all the layers represent.

It's something like this: 8 * * * 4 * * * * * 2 * * * * * * 1 * * * * * * Hrs Min Sec According to the LEDs, you just add the values of each column. The time in Cleg's pictured clock is 10:48:36. |

Ok, the post auto-format screwed up what I wrote. In words, each row has a value. The first one is 1, the second 2, third 4, fourth 8. Each column represent a digit.
