Cool clock, wish I could afford it!

Back in the late 60's I was designing remote control systems for gas 
pumps at convenience stores - long before they existed. Te looked at 
using a CRT based display from IEEE, I believe that would put numbers up 
on a <2" screen, but it was too expensive for the project. We went with 
7-segment LED displays instead.

Peace,
Pat
