Typically, anniversary clocks are also considered to be collectible clocks. These timepieces can be easily personalized so that they can be dedicated to a specific individual or couple and traditionally were only wound once a year. If you are interested in purchasing a collectible clock, consider first the color. Typically, an anniversary clock is made of metal with a glass dome overtop. A revolving pendulum at the bottom allows the mechanism to continually keep time while also allowing the chimes to work. These clocks are generally fitted with chimes to designate each hour or even play a tune as the time changes. Most clocks designated as anniversary gifts are either made in silver or gold. Traditionally, silver is most associated with the 25th anniversary, while gold is associated with the 50th anniversary. However, the specific color you choose will probably be impacted by the décor of your room.
