Last minute thought. Taken in B/W from camera. I used auto contrast, adj brightness substantially as it was a very dark photo. USM and add border. Slight adj levels and curves.
If I had more time I would have taken it differently, but for something that wasn't planned I'm quite happy with it. I set the clock at 4 (afternoon) as that is the deadline time for submissions here in Australia ! I just made this with 5 mins to go ! I welcome any comments !

IMHO it's not really hidden when you set it up. I enjoy your idea, and the B&W looks great but I think you sell yourself short when you set up things like this. Had this been an ad or something I would comment differently.
Seems a little "contrived" rather than "hidden" as I thought was intended by the challenge. Also would rather see the whole clock...and seems that sepia does not do the image justice. Bottom of chain also seems out of focus.
