By taking a design from one of its watches, the Shinola Guardian Travel Alarm Clock takes the company’s eye for design from your wrist to your bed-side table. Let’s face it – the only thing anyone is looking forward to about Monday morning wake up call is hitting snooze. Yet, the brass-toned stainless steel case of this alarm clock is definitely a site for behold on any occasion. The tumbled brass case is just one component of the minimalist presentation driven home by the cream dial that hosts Arabic numerals in a clean black font. The style blends vintage with contemporary, just like the Shinola wristwatch it bases its aesthetic appeal on.

The 2.6-inch by 2.5-inch alarm clock weighs in at just 0.5 lbs. Its continuous sweep quartz movement is powered by a battery so it’s easy to take along on any trip and won’t take up any additional outlet space. This makes it a welcome companion to any bedside that will keep you running on time, no matter how hurried the pace of life gets.
