Great job, love it!

Also lovely: https://sunclock.net

I enjoy running clocks on this circular display from Waveshare: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C14CZ2GG The content is provided by a Raspberry Pi 4, and these Javascript clocks can be quite taxing. Especially when the second hand is running smooth there was visual stuttering. Had to try different browsers, Chrome was the best I recall.

If anyone knows of other large circular displays, please post here.

The new BMW Mini has a gorgeous 24cm circular OLED display, but that's not generally available, OEM only [1][2].

Thank you for your reply. Sunclock looks nice! I miss analog clock on cars, digital clocks are all around. Maybe I'm old because I read analog clock better than digital, somehow it's easier to visualize time from that. Young generation reads and likes digital clocks more. Maybe digital clocksimulator alternative also who knows...
