If you watch any of the videos from the YouTube channel you may here the narrator reference the "FlipClockFans Studios." Well, that used to be the kitchen table until the wife banished me to my area. From the buying and selling on eBay and other sites, I have realized that there must be a significant following of these clocks out there. These days, I appreciate most any sort of flip clock and choose to buy clocks simply based on their looks. I just had to have one each of those too.

In the process of buying and selling the Groundhog Day movie clocks, I discovered the other movie prop clocks - the Back To The Future clock, and the clock that appeared in the Tommy Lee Jones movie, No Country For Old Men. The "leftovers" were resold on eBay, going out clocks to Flip Clock Fans in places like Macau, and Moscow, Russian Federation, as well as the USA.

So I bought several of the white Panasonic RC6025s and learned how to disassemble and clean these clocks, taking the best of each to make my perfect clock. Unfortunately for my bank account, I just had to have the perfect clock. Near the 20th Anniversary of this movie, (which is my favorite), I realized that I simply had to have one of those clocks. It wasn't until I saw the movie, Groundhog day in 1993 that I remembered how much I loved those flip clocks. Time went by and before I could own a flip clock myself, they were replaced by the new and "improved" digital LED clocks. I think I spun the clock around 3-4 times before I was made to leave it alone. In any event, it was faux woodgrain and simply wonderful. I'm not sure exactly what model it was, but I suspect that it was an RC-6040 or RC-6030. As a child back in the 70s I gazed in wide wonder as my friend showed me his brand new Panasonic flip clock. This website is the result of my personal fascination with flip clocks.
