Martin, 1) Check out www.masterclock.com - they regularly exhibit at PTTI with a wide variety of metrology-grade clock displays. The prices were reasonable, although you could make one yourself for half the price if you spend a couple of weeks of your own time.
2) Scroll through http://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=IRIG+LED+display+IRIG+timecode 3) On eBay you can sometimes find wonderful 2 or 3 or 4 foot long time displays by Austron or Datum; nixie or plasma or LED. Unless you need one next week or next month, something will turn up on eBay eventually. It will both be functional and have that classic retro NASA look. 3) For a DIY solution consider some of the networkable matrix LED display modules: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/760 https://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?t=7257 And there are many more examples all over the web. See if some of these appeal to you: http://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&q=large+LED+matrix+clock+display Lastly, this "12ft GPS Wall Clock" wins the prize... https://www.sparkfun.com/tutorials/47 4) The television monitor ideas are an easy solution. Use a PC or Raspberry Pi.
