My first home brew clock was B5750s. Nice smaller tube. I built a 4 digit clock into a Zenith "Circle of Sound" clock radio, in which the mechanical clock had failed.
I believe it to be the very first published example of a nixie tube clock radio. The picture was featured on the home page of neonixie-L back in the Yahoo era, for quite a while. Some long-timers here may remember that. The B5750s seem to be rugged little tubes with plenty of life and good brightness. If I had any small clock ideas in the works I might buy them from you.
