Interesting idea, but it would probably make the clock-case too deep to
accommodate the CRT.
Even the 6E5 I was hoping to use was pushing the limit.

Thanks everyone for the responses.
I purchased two 6AF6G tubes, and because of the way my big clock was
designed, I believe I can get fine-grained control of the magic-eye tube
from my NMOS drivers without changing the PCB (just a few component and
cabling changes).
I will attempt to make a

I spoke to a vacuum tube designer a few months ago, well into his nineties
now, who told me the same thing. He told me that apart from the glow fading
due to the material used to produce the glow many tubes had a problem with
the cathode not emitting electrons as designed and expected which
