Servo Promotional Clock

Promotional wall clock made from a 14-inch disk platter.

The company who gave it out - Servo Computer Systems Ltd - existed in Sheffield up until 2006 when they were taken over by Phoenix (an IT services company). Phoenix is the trading name of Phoenix IT Group plc.

The packs used on the ITL were 80M, comprising 11 platters. I don't believe the top and bottom platter surfaces were used, which would make each platter 4M each side! Obviously we don't know whether the clock platter is a similar type as capacity varied.

This clock was very kindly donated by Ian Midgely.
