The Present — Year Matte Finish The Present is an annual wall clock. Its single hand completes one revolution per year, always pointing to the present moment against the backdrop of the year. Conventional clocks orient you within the hour. The Present adds the year as a whole. It makes the pace of the year visible, giving the moment a wider frame and showing where you are within the annual cycle. Created by Scott Thrift in Brooklyn. Made in Burlington, Vermont. A different way to experience time The Present does not track your schedule, send updates or compete for your attention. It is silent, battery-powered and designed to live on the wall as a steady reference point. As the hand moves almost imperceptibly, the year becomes visible as one unfolding whole: seasons approaching, arriving and passing. Why people live with it See the year as one continuous shape Experience the present moment in relation to the whole year Follow the movement of the seasons Bring a wider sense of time into the home The Matte Finish The Matte is the open-face edition of The Present. Without glass or a steel rim, it has a lighter physical presence and places the printed annual dial directly in the room. Its custom movement was developed specifically to complete one precise revolution every 365.24 days, for many years to come.
