A demonic style clock crowned with this tube constantly cycling at 10Hz rate (so each digit lights once a second) from front to back. That would look interesting. Personally, I don't get the "collector" thing. It's nice to have something unique, but if you're not willing to use it, it is just another thing taking up space. I'd buy a trurly rare tube only to resell it. Not so recently I've visited one market, on which I found some fine grid IN-1s and some uncommon nixies (mostly American, very rare in post-soviet country) for ~3$ each, the price was okay, but having 1-2 tubes of each type is pointless unless I make a Frankensteins Monster clock.
I spent my money on other gems that day, NOS TESLA gold grid, gold pin E88CC for 5$ each.
