the code for this was a pain! Anywho! i hope you all enjoy it :3I know that binary clocks aren't normally displayed in 12 hour format, but i like it better this way.... so deal with it :3

from what I'm seeing it works something like a abacus.

Right. Well this is pretty damn cool. I don't know binary, but I think I've figured out how to read it anyway, just by staring at the "second hand". (correct me if I'm wrong, which is quite likely) Effectively, the far right counts up to 10. You can figure out which number is which by seeing when the next column changes (that is 10). The next column counts up to 6, and again you can tell this by how often the column to the right of that changes. So 6X10=60, those two columns tell you the seconds of the minute. The two to the right of the "second hands" basically do the same for minutes. I'm not sure about the leftmost columns... I would guess that the farthest left just tells the digits of the time. So if it were 8:00, they would read 0, 8 (well, the equivalent in binary) and if it were 12, they would read 1, 2.
Perhaps you could've gone one stage further than this and made everything divisible by 10. So 100 seconds in a minute, 100 minutes in an hour, 10 hours in a day. That would make it REALLY hard to read.
Anyway, I really liked this.

there are 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't

B-binary *brain breaks*
This would be awesome to me... if I could read binary properly. |Db

Holy crap, awexome job. At first I was having difficulties reading it, but then I remembered "It's in binary stupid, it deals with 2s". I wish my years worth of AP Computer Science could have taught me something useful, like how to make a binary clock.

Nice concept. I honestly have never seen a clock or a watch like this, now I really want one. xD;;
I'm such a geek.

. . . . . . Okay, I must be really thick, I don't get it.
Don't get me wrong, I know what Binary is, just . . .
Well, despite any aforementioned thickness, this is very impressive.
