The Expanse MCRN Clock - MCS /Modular Clock System

The Expanse MCRN Clock

The MCRN Tac-Time Chronometer is a precision-engineered 3D-printed clock inspired by the rugged efficiency of the Martian Congressional Republic Navy. Constructed from high-durability polymers (not really, its just PLA) and orange accents, its bold, angular design echoes the industrial aesthetic of MCRN warships. 

The face features an orange, white and black color scheme, with luminous numerals (if you use glow in the dark filament that is… which WILL destroy your AMS, but I think its worth it!) reminiscent of tactical HUDs, and the MCRN insignia emblazoned at its heart. 

Inside it, there is a miniature Epstein drive utilizing magnetic coil exhaust acceleration (aka BambuLab Clock Components Kit 011) precision quartz movement technology that will ensure accuracy and utter silence. No more pesky tik - toks (or the other TikTok, that was completely erradicated by a MCRN taskforce) , while the rotating second hand mimics the spin-up of a railgun capacitor. 

Built for the disciplined and the determined, this clock is not just a timepiece—it’s a statement of Martian resolve. 

For the Republic.

For now, this is an AMS only project, if there is sufficient interest I may do a ams'less one. Due to the intricate design, the 0.4 nozzle is struggling a bit with the details, a 0.2 would have sharper details. There are very very tiny gaps if you look at it with a magnifying glass, but half a meter away you cant tell a thing. On a clock thats at least a meter away from you, I say it's fine, but I do like to give a fair warning nonetheless.

The design features very sharp minute marks, however, a 0.4 can only do so much.

Part of my MCS system, every time you want to change things up, all you need to do is print the front panel and swap them out. Designed for the Bambu Lab Kit 011. Let me know in the comments what clock theme you would like!
