NovaClock™ — Personalised Wooden Clock

NovaClock™ is available in three solid-wood configurations designed for different placements.

• Wall Clock — Oak: Ø24 × 2 cm, oak construction from glued wooden slats, rear battery clock mechanism, black hands and wall-mounted format.
• Standing Clock — Oak: Ø15 × 1.5 cm, oak construction, rear support, battery mechanism hidden from the front, black hands with a gold-coloured centre fixing.
• Standing Clock — Beech: Ø15 × 1.5 cm, solid beech standing format for shelves, desks and sideboards.
• Personalisation: Laser engraving by AtaNova.
• Design approval: Digital Design Proof before engraving.

The oak versions have a protective hard-wax finish. Oak and beech are natural materials, so grain, markings and colour tone vary from piece to piece.

Personalise NovaClock™ with names, a date or a short message. Concise wording leaves more room around the clock face and helps keep the design readable.

• Names: Enter spelling exactly as required.
• Date: Use the exact date format you want engraved.
• Short message: Keep wording concise so the clock remains easy to read and visually balanced.
• Special characters: Check accents, punctuation and capital letters carefully.

How the Design Proof process works

1. Choose Wall Clock — Oak, Standing Clock — Oak or Standing Clock — Beech.

2. Enter names, date or short message exactly as you want them to appear.

3. AtaNova adapts the composition to the selected clock size and format.

4. We email a digital Design Proof before engraving.

5. Check spelling, date format, placement and overall balance.

6. Approve the proof or request a reasonable small adjustment.

NovaClock™ — Complete Product Guide

NovaClock™ combines solid wood, a simple clock face and permanent laser personalisation. The main choice is where you want to use it: a larger Oak Wall Clock, or a compact Standing Clock in Oak or Beech.

Which style should you choose?

Wall Clock — Oak

Choose the Ø24 × 2 cm wall version when you want NovaClock™ to act as a larger decorative focal point. Its oak construction and black hands keep the personalised face readable from across a room.

Standing Clock — Oak

The Ø15 × 1.5 cm standing oak version is designed for shelves, desks and sideboards. It keeps the natural oak grain visible while using a compact footprint.

Standing Clock — Beech

The Ø15 × 1.5 cm beech version offers the same compact standing format with a calmer, more understated wood appearance.

Oak or Beech?

Oak usually shows a more pronounced grain, while beech tends to look more even and restrained. Both are natural woods, so tone and grain vary from piece to piece.

What should you engrave?

Names, a date or a short message can be arranged around the clock face. Shorter wording leaves more available space and helps keep the personalisation readable.

Design Proof before engraving

You receive a digital Design Proof before engraving. Check spelling, date format, placement and overall composition. You can approve the proof or request a reasonable small adjustment before engraving.

How It Works

1. Choose your style. Select Wall Clock — Oak, Standing Clock — Oak or Standing Clock — Beech.

2. Add your personalisation. Enter names, date or short message exactly as required.

3. Review your Design Proof. AtaNova prepares the composition and emails it before engraving.

4. Approve the design. Check spelling and placement, then approve or request a small reasonable change.

5. We engrave, check and deliver. After approval, AtaNova laser-personalises the clock, checks the finished piece, packs it carefully and sends it with tracking. Delivered within 3–5 business days.

Care

Keep the clock dry, wipe the wood gently and avoid pressure on the hands. Do not expose the rear clock mechanism to water or harsh cleaning products.

Compare NovaClock with another personalised wooden home piece

Choose NovaClock when you want a functional timepiece and personalised wooden display in one object. If you want a grouped candle display instead, compare it with the Personalised Wooden Tealight Holder Set, which creates a four-piece graduated arrangement rather than a clock.
