A Design Piece with Enhanced Functionality
Chroniker is an entirely handcrafted timepiece with beautiful Teak wood grain panels and electroluminescent technology in the most astonishing piece of vintage design. When we created the Chroniker Collection, we took the inspiring Googie architectural style and the Art Deco philosophy at heart. The result? We came up with powerful, imposing models that are moving and classy at the same time. It also incorporates an alarm function that sounds good enough to wake you up in style. In addition to the Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) tubes, the circuit board features four LED´s that change color for different functions without interfering with the posh blue-ish glow of the clock.
Handcrafted with Unique Materials
This is not your run-of-the-mill clock. Through the Chroniker Collection, Nuvitron captured the very essence of a bygone era by putting together the smooth Teak case and the neat glow of VFD tubes. And although all the Chronikers are amazing to look at, every single one is entirely handmade and unique. Each case has gone through a delicate process that involves drying and treating the wood to guarantee high resistance and a silky smooth texture. VFD tubes were tested one by one before being carefully assembled.
Old School Technology with a Retro Look
The technology behind the Chroniker relies on Vacuum Fluorescent Display tubes, which were made in the former Soviet Union and are considered to be the precursors of the LED display. The tubes contain a thin layer of phosphor mixed with inert gases in a high pressure glass enclosure. Their amazingly cool blue glow is based on the principle of cathodoluminescence, whereby electrons produced by a filament hit the phosphor and cause the emission of photons visible to the human eye. Nuvitron salvaged this phenomenal electroluminescent technology and put the old school into a fascinating Googie/Art Deco design.
