The Wall-Hung Wristwatch is a woodworking plan for a 15-inch-tall wooden clock shaped like an oversized wristwatch—not a wearable watch. It can hang on a wall or sit on a desktop. The project appeared in WOOD Issue 90 in September 1996, and the publisher says the plan includes full-sized patterns for its curved pieces.
What the plan makes
This is a decorative clock project with a wristwatch-inspired shape. WoodworkersWorkshop lists its finished height as 15 inches (37.5 cm); WOOD Magazine describes it as a 15-inch-long clock. The plan page presents it for either wall display or desktop use.
The pictured clock uses oak and walnut. The visible product description does not provide stock dimensions or a cut list, so you will need the plan to determine the lumber sizes and quantities.
What the woodworking plan includes
- Full-sized patterns: WOOD Magazine says patterns are supplied for the curved pieces.
- Building and finishing guidance: WoodworkersWorkshop describes the plan as including building instructions and finishing guidelines.
- Printing information: The distributor says scaled templates can be printed on standard 8½-by-11-inch paper.
- Movement sourcing: The publisher says the plan provides a mail-order source for the clock movement, but its current project page does not name a movement type, dimensions, power source, or current supplier.
The plan is separate from the wood and other materials: Woodcraft explicitly says materials are not included with its paper-plan listing. Check the seller’s current listing for available plan formats and fulfillment terms; the distributor page reviewed described paper and PDF versions.

Tools and materials to plan for
The distributor names a drill press, common hand tools, and either a scroll saw or a band saw. The listing does not establish that one cutting tool is faster, more precise, or better for every builder, so choose between them based on the equipment and skills you have.
Oak and walnut are shown in the listing, but it does not specify how much lumber to buy. Confirm stock dimensions and quantities from the purchased plan before sourcing wood. Likewise, do not buy a clock movement based only on appearance: check the movement requirements in the plan before ordering, since the publisher’s page does not identify a compatible model.
