In this video they tell the story of one rapscallion of a trombonist who steals the heart of a concert-goer’s wife. With their Victorian clothing and brass aviator goggles, you can squint and almost imagine yourself within a Jules Verne novel.

When you knock on the top of this minimalistic wooden box, it knocks back the time of day (to the nearest quarter hour). It even has a basic alarm function, which—naturally—is set by knocking as well. [via Adafruit] Update: Check out the interior of the Knock Clock here.
