Very rare and sought after coloured vinyl records fashioned into fully functional clocks. These rare Hindi vinyls posses a stunning vintage charm. Back in the vinyl days, these coloured records were released in limited/special edition formats, usually to celebrate the successful run of an album.

Pictured here is an original, red coloured vinyl records clock for sale of the film Amar Akbar Anthony.

This revolutionary product combines two separate offerings into one very unique design: vintage memorabilia and actual function.

Back in the days, these coloured vinyl records played melodious tunes on record players. Reborn in a fresh avatar as clocks, these vintage coloured vinyl records have been given a new lease of life!

The old Hindi records that these clocks have been made from are either 33 ½ or 45 RPM 12” Long Play vinyls from the 1960s/70s/80s. Vinyl records surviving today have very little play value, primarily because of scratches and dust that accumulate over several decades they have been around for. Hence, if played on a gramophone or a turntable, they tend to skip.

Old Hindi songs vinyl records also pose a risk to the environment as the vinyl material they are made of is non-biodegradable. Thousands of broken vinyl records find their way into landfills each year and end up clogging and harming the environment. By converting these redundant vinyl records into actual functional clocks that serve a purpose, Indian Hippy aims to promote the message of “recycle and reuse.”

This unique product transforms  coloured vinyl records into objects of curiosity that serve an excellent function of telling the time. Our vintage vinyl records are certified damage-free and are thoroughly cleaned before being converted into clocks.

Fitted with a thoroughly tested clock machine encased in a plastic body compartment at the back, this beautiful clock is ready for hanging on your wall.

This coloured vinyl record clock works with a standard AA pencil battery. Also provided with every vinyl LP record clock is the original jacket of the record to validate its authenticity. The jacket features artwork on the front cover and a song list on its back detailing information about singers, music composers, etc.

Please read the following carefully before placing your order:

  1. Since all the vinyl LP records are vintage (some dating all the way back to the 1960s), please expect light buffs and scratches on the record surface.
  2. The vinyl material of the LP record is UV sensitive and susceptible to heat damage. Exposure to direct sunlight will cause the LP record to warp / contort. Hence, the clock must be installed on a wall away from direct sunlight and heat.
  3. Since the hands of the clock are exposed, please do not place the clock flat on its face or touch the hands. Doing so may bend the hands and impair the natural motion of the clock.
