The first clock I ever built (1980) used stepper relays and incandescent edge-lit displays. Time-keeping used a 1 RPM motor with a cam. It was a noisy piece of junk. My first nixie clock (2011) is built entirely from 4000-series CMOS logic gates, and runs off the AC line (no transformer). Several subsequent clocks use FPGAs for the logic.
