Created a Flash clock for the Rolex Big Boat Series!

Hey guys! I'm happy to announce that I was contacted by the fine folks at the Rolex Big Boat Series in San Franciso to create them a Flash clock for their Website. They wanted a Flash version of the fantastic Rolex clock that's on their grounds.

The original clock lacks a seconds hand, and to make it more animated, Rolex NYC gave the go ahead for me to fashion a matching seconds hand. Below is a link to the Flash clock that I created, and below that is a photo of the actual clock. You can also see a smaller version of the clock on the Rolex Big Boat Series website.

Creating a clock for a Rolex sponsored event was very exciting for me!

Clock looks good but in your link it is positioned on the opposite side of the bay from the St. Francis Yachtt Club.
Your photo is from the Marin County perspective. Find a photo with the Golden Gate Bridge on the left hand side and that will be the view from St. Francis Yacht Club.
