I've built a few clocks, mostly using the MX7219 matrix, the Adafruit FX soundboards for bells, chimes, cuckoo sounds, etc. and an RTC. I wanted to build on the base code and develop clocks using a 32x32 RGB panel. I've built two of them using different pitch (density) panels from Adafruit, giving two different size clocks. The clocks feature Westminster chimes, Cuckoo sounds and a simple bell with appropriate 'animation' to accompany the sound. They also provide time, temperature, humidity and barometric pressure as well as reminders of events, holiday and any built in date reminders you want.
