The Running Clock by George Wyllie outside the Buchanan Bus Station in Glasgow. Created in 1999, it was designed to chime once a day at 8pm, which its creator felt was the perfect time to meet.

The site of the original department store is now occupied by the Sauchiehall Centre, which once had its own distinctive clock hanging inside, featuring automatons that moved around on the hour. I often wonder what happened to that clock as it was always a favourite of mine as a child.

The Copland and Lye Clock on Main Street in Milngavie. This clock originally hung on the Copland and Lye's Caledonia House Department Store on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow. It closed in 1971 and was demolished soon after. The clock was saved and was given to Milngavie Town Council, who refurbished it and installed it at its current location.
