Ok, the thread title pretty much says it all. I am looking for the clock that appears in the movie Blade 2 (which I have not yet seen, but am working on). Evidentally, it is hanging in the office, and on the DVD in the bonus materials, the director has a small representation on her desk. I have been looking for this, and found a picture of the clock in Prague which I think is the same one ([The astrological clocks of Münster and Praha](http://fun.chryzode.org/english/horloge.htm)), but I have had no success in finding a smaller version which can be purchased. Anyone have any links? My google skills are usually better than this ☹ ~cats ---

Your link doesn’t work, but I assume you’re talking about the Astronomical Clock or “Orloj” (pronounced OR-loy, roll the r) on the Old Town hall in Old Town square in Prague. [http://www.orloj.com/](http://www.orloj.com/) Maybe try “Astronomical Clock repica” on eBay? ---

Yes, I believe a small replica of the Orloj is what I am looking for. I’m still searching, but coming up empty. Any additional help would be appreciated. ~a very frustrated cats ps. I have tried various searches on ebay. Tonight I imagine I will just type in “clock” and go through every single listing. _sighs_ ---

This is incredibly frustrating. No luck yet. Anyone in Prague close to souvenir shops? ---

Good luck - but avoid **Blade 2**. Really. It’s awful (this coming from someone who otherwise loves the Blade movies). Don’t waste your time or money. You’ll thank me later. But the clock’s sweet - definitely get that. ---

Well, it is a miniature replica of the tower, not the clock by itself, but for only [$4,200.00](http://dart.fine-art.com/aqd-asp-i_33268-buy-artlistinginfo.htm), you can have an original [Gene Gill](http://dart.fine-art.com/aqd-asp-F_Gene-L_Gill-buy-sQuery.htm) ---

Sadly, I’m afraid viewing Blade 2 is in my future, as the One I Am Trying To Please is not convinced that is the right clock. Wish me luck, ~cats
