  this would be even better without the hands - but with two thin transparent rotating sheets with magnifying glasses inserted in them, hour magnifier being a bit larger so it covers, maybe little distorts a whole hour span - so you could see a bit of 2 and 3 , and then gigantic 3!! Whee!! such a cool concept!!!!

  Fun idea - agree with the first comment.
  
  I don't think you need worry about the usability, you still can tell the time by where the hands are located - or is that too difficult in the digital age?

  Just make larger numbers and save some parts... unnecessary stuff.

  You've got the beginning of a good idea, but as presented, it's got some pretty big issues. For all but a few minutes of the day, the glasses will be magnifying blank space. Even worse, you have no way to differentiate hours and minutes. Is the clock in the picture at 3:00, or 12:15?
  
  With two separate number rings and a discrete (non-continuous) clock movement, it's vastly more useful.

  The concept looks nice but coming to the real time usage the hours hand moves out of the number after some minutes where the number will not be magnified. I think one should think from the functional point of view also.

  The clock should have an inner/outer ring of numbers ranging from 1-59 that the minute hand magnifies.

  Very cool concept, though the magnifying glass really only needs to be on the hour hand.
