His workshop in the Czech Republic continues the tradition of a technology that went extinct in the 90s, and after more than ten years of development, he managed to restore the complete manufacturing process—from glass blowing to vacuum technologies. Thanks to his work, Nixie tubes, once used in aviation technology and early computers, have once again become a symbol of precise craftsmanship and collector exclusivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eClock dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 mm x \u003cspan\u003e85 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical power\u003c\/strong\u003e: typically \u003cspan\u003e1.25 W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConsumption\u003c\/strong\u003e: typically \u003cspan\u003e250 mA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnector\u003c\/strong\u003e: USB-C\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eClock weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan\u003e345 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dalibor Farný","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":59562873618780,"sku":"MPS-WATCH-COM-DF-BULB-BLACK","price":9689.99,"currency_code":"CZK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/5479\/2540\/files\/26_2834_fec4b104-9c48-44de-9f94-d1839fdfd2f2.jpg?v=1792313706","url":"https:\/\/www.infinitywatches.cz\/en\/products\/dalibor-farny-blub-nixie-clock-black","provider":"INFINITY Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
