ABSTRACT:
A timepiece is constructed of a hand assembly (16) including a clock movement (10) and hands (12). A magnet (18) is affixed to the hand assembly (16) so that the hand assembly (16) may be magnetically mounted on a ferrous metal object (28). In another version there is further provided magnetic ornamental indicator(s) (22) which indicate the time. In still another version an ornamental ferrous metal object (24) is provided and attached to the clock movement (10) and hands (12). In this same version the drive shaft (14) extends through the ornamental ferrous metal object (24), and the magnet (18) is also affixed to the hand assembly (16). Also in this version magnetic ornamental indicator(s) (22) may be further provided. Yet another version provides the hand assembly (16) including a clock movement (10) and hands (12) with a non-magnetic adhesive (26) by which the hand assembly (16) affixes to the ferrous metal object (28). In this same version magnetic ornamental indicator(s) (22) may be further provided. In all versions of the timepiece construction an ornamental object (20) may be further provided and attached to the clock movement (10) and hands (12), and the drive shaft (14) may extend through the ornamental object (20).
