BanClock Coin Operated Alarm Clock

This Japanese alarm clock sure makes it in the list of the most annoying ones (see list below) available. The BanClock only shuts up when you insert a 500 or 100 Yen coin.

The design of the Banclock is actually very stylish: Simple and a touch of retro created through the use of old school LED digits.

If you feed the Banclock each morning with a 500 Yen coin you can save up 50,000 Yen until the piggy bank alarm clock becomes full.
With 100 Yen coins you only collect 15,000 Yen.
A BanClock sells for 5,985 Yen (~$50) in Japan.
More details and photos on AkihabaraNews and on the Rakuten shop (Japanese).
