Braun AB1

A few days ago our faithful Ikea alarm clock that we have been using for the last 6 years finally died on us. I have casually been looking for a replacement for it for years, and I have never really found anything I thought I would want more, until now. A recent cache of the brilliant Braun AB1 alarm clocks have surfaced and are available for sale. Originally produced in the 70’s and designed by Braun ID legend Dieter Rams this could be your last chance to get a NIB original AB1. Sure you are paying a greatly inflated price for a plastic clock designed in the 70’s but you are also buying a icon for $40.

Available from Charles and Marie and Fitzu for $40

Mom, Dad, I hear fathers day is coming up soon…. Enough said.
