The Time is displayed in a digital form and Pin clock only show you the hours and minutes figures as it’s impossible to show you the second count. The Pin Clock is pretty much a 3D type of digital clock and you’ll see them reshuffle their own every minute and hour changes. Pin clock is more about art then a normal digital clock.
