How Is Clock Size Measured

Clock hands are listed with the minute hand length, measured from the middle of the mounting hole to the tip of the hand. The length of the hour hand will correspond with the minute hand so you don’t need to measure the hour hand.

What is the size of a clock?

Generally, a clock will be between six to eighteen inches (about 15 cm to 45 cm). A smaller clock might measure around 8.5 inches (21 cm), and a medium clock sits around 12 to 24 inches (30 to 60 cm), while a larger clock can be between 24 to 32 inches (60 to 81 cm).

How do you choose a clock size?

A smaller room generally will look good with a smaller clock, while a bigger room will do well with a larger clock. Think about size in relation to where you’re placing the clock.
