Depicted unique clock with two by hammer bell-ringing giants decorates top of the corner facade of former Siemens Building (Edificio Siemens) in Monserrat district of Buenos Aires.

The modern clock is interesting thanks to 4 m tall statues of two giants with electromechanic hammers, which are ringing the bell connected with the clock. The clock was installed on the top of the functionalist office building, headquarters of Siemens company in Argentina, in 1930. Badly damaged and abandoned clock was completely restored thanks to Siemens in 1992 and now again belongs among the most beautiful in the city.
