Time is Money saves bills and environment

Damian Koh  |  Jan 16, 2009
What do you get when you take 50 shredded Japanese bills in 1,000, 2,000, 5,000 and 10,000 yen denominations mixed with resin and stick two hands on the pile?

That's right, a Japanese Yen clock! Lest you think this is some rich man's pasttime in the midst of the economic recession, the bills are actually recycled currency. And because it's a meshed-up clock, no two are alike. The value of this time piece is at least 50,000 yen (US$553), but the consolation is you can snag one of these for a paltry US$40.
