Voice Clock - Danish talking clock

Cool talking Voice Clock from the mid 90s by the brand Voice Design.
Intended for use by blind people but can also be used by people having trouble reading ordinary clocks and of course people like me - gadget collectors specializing in the gadgets not found in the typical teenagers room.

It is a 24 hour clock (16:45 etc.) and speaks Danish and is very basic - clock only - but none the less IMHO still quite cool.
Made in Denmark, Svendborg, by Etronic A/S (Copyright and design is by Voice Design but physical fabrication is done by Etronics).
It uses an ordinary 9 volt battery.

I really like it. The electronics inside screams high quality made to last decades and the building style is a bit like an electronics kit with pre made case made of a standard aluminium profile. Yeah I know. The buttons are the weak part here ;)

Voice Design still makes Danish talking clocks today and they're still fabricated by Etronics.
Although to be honest - their new models speaks and looks like a toy. But hey. At least they're now available with alarm (no snooze unfortunately) and there's also a model with alarm and date.
