Outdoor clocks
I've been buying cheapies but they just don't last.I've looked at tons of them online and the array of choices is a little much.I'm just looking for a good basic clock that I can see from around the yard.With the amount of outdoor cooking that I do a clock is essential.

Anybody have any recommendations or experiences with a particular brand?

For outdoor durability I don't think you can beat the good old sun dial.

Can't see a sun dial from the yard.

Can't wear jewelry/watches,get a rash.

I have a large copper thermometer that I picked up at Bean or Orvis. It has large round dia (about 12+" in dia). I know they made a clock and barometer as well. It has been outside for at least 7 or 8 years. Looks great and is accurate. It is mounted on the house under an eve so it is not fully exposed but it sees weather.
