Sun Chaser Electronic Desk Clock Model DIY Kit

Once upon a time, a mighty Red Dragon, the Lord of the ocean, fell in Love with the Sun, which made its waters sparkle like billions of diamonds. But the vast thickness of the sky separated them. The dragon asked his brother, the Lord of the air, to lift the ocean’s waves higher and higher. But he has never reached the beautiful face of the Sun. Then, he decided to present all the treasures stored at the bottom to the Luminary. But the rays of the Sun have not been able to break through the water column.

In desperation, they turned to the Heavenly Emperor. And the Almighty answered them: a million years will pass when the world will change, the mountains will sink, the bottom of the ocean will rise, and the Sun will fall on the Earth, and only at this last moment will you be destined to meet. Since then, the Red Dragon has been watching his Love and counting down the years. No, this is not an ancient Asian legend. We just came up with it by looking at how the “Sun Chaser” prefabricated sundial works. You can come up with many of your versions.

In Asian mythology, dragons are the foundation of everything. These creatures have many forms but represent the four elements: fire, water, air, and Earth. With their unlimited power over the Earth and the creatures inhabiting it, even the most powerful dragons are powerless against the invincible. Therefore, to create a model of a sundial in the shape of a dragon was an ingenious idea. As a result of a bold design idea, a beautiful composition was born that tells of a Red Dragon that wants to reunite with the Sun, but only by following it with the gaze of its jade eyes, counting down the hours of eternity. A beautiful legend has found its embodiment in metal, thanks to the efforts of the “Metal Time” engineers.

While creating the Sun Chaser, the Metal Time team was inspired by the history of human observation over Time and Asian mythology. Of course, the sundial’s basis was a fixed piece that casts a shadow on the timeline, but our engineers and designers decided to improve this design. The result is an art object that will bring a lot of pleasure to both lovers of technical creativity and connoisseurs of beauty.

Features and Benefits

The watch will arouse considerable interest and become an excellent subject for conversation, especially if the owner presents some beautiful legends. The assembly process will pose many challenges for you, but a few hours spent on technical creativity will be rewarded with an excellent result.

We’re here to help you buy the hottest products affordably, with fast shipping and World-Class Customer Support. However, please read about the newly imposed tariffs and click the Delivery tab to review our Return and Refund policies before making a purchase.

Tariff: We ship directly from the country where the product is made, such as China, Italy, or Taiwan, helping you avoid or pay lower tariffs. Since we do not always ship products to you from the USA (except for products made in the USA or stocked), you will not be affected by the new tariffs imposed by the USA. Due to new tariff agreements between countries, not all products are subject to tariffs, as tariffs vary by country or product. For example, customers in the USA will pay a tariff on products imported from China, based on the tariff rate agreed between the USA and China. And so, if applicable, you, the customer, will pay the tariff in your respective country. The total amount of your order does not include a tariff, which you will pay before the delivery. We won’t issue a refund if you don’t pay the tariff.

Ships From: On this product page, check the Ships From: label to see which country we will ship this product from, because we do not ship all products from the USA; some products ship from regions like China, Taiwan, Canada, and Europe. Therefore, the tariff you pay depends on the country your order is shipped from, as not all countries charge the same tariff. For example, suppose the US imposes a 30% tariff on goods imported from China; in contrast, other countries may impose a significantly lower tariff, or even none at all, on goods shipped from China into their countries.

Attention! We will email you the tracking number for you to track your parcel. The shipping company will contact you by phone, text, or email to arrange payment of the tariff. However, as the customer, you are responsible for responding to their call, text, or email. You can also click the tracking number link we emailed you to contact the shipping company and make the tariff payment, if you haven’t already.

Heads Up! We’re not responsible for parcels returned to us if you don’t pay the tariff or fail to follow up with the shipping company. As a result, if the shipping company returns the parcel to its country of origin, you will be responsible for re-shipping costs and tariff charges. We will not accept any excuses for not paying the tariff or for failing to follow up with the shipping company for the tariff, and we will not issue a refund.


Why are we not adding tariffs to the product’s retail price? If all countries imposed the same tariff amount and used the same currency, we would have added that tariff to the product’s retail price. Our suppliers and we are not responsible for tariffs. Please shop accordingly.
