So after a little over 8 months the flashy Omega clock is off the clock tower and is being replaced by the one it had replaced. Omega had a three year contract, and quoting Gulf news:
"We have entered into a contract with a local agent for three years. He will be making a payment of Dh750,000 to the municipality [in lieu of publicity] and will be responsible for the maintenance of the clocks over the three-year period. One advantage of linking the clocks to GPS is that it does away with the need to manually adjust the hands," said Al Fuqae."
So I suppose recession strikes again, but for once I feel good about it!! :D
Sorry for the crappy image, but it's difficult trying to take a picture while driving especially with a really slow focusing mobile camera... :|

It is also dangerous. You should have parked your car to take the pic! It would have been safer for you and other drivers, and you'd have provided us with a better pic... too bad.
I wish you wouldn't take pictures and drive.
That is a picture of you in a car while moving? Dude I couldnt take a picture half as good while standing still.
So they gonna sell the rights to the clock to Paris hilton next? She has a watch brand.
The road was empty and I was travelling at 10kmph.... :)
ohhh... While I was driving.. I saw a guy on the same day with a canon taking the same exact shot/angel with a canon DSLR while the crane is working..
when I saw this pic posted by you I thought its you the guy who was photographing :D
