Location: Harajuku in Tokyo, Japan.
Episode of Appearance: 009 - Usagi no sainan! Awate dokeini goyoujin

click for larger version Clock Look was a clock store located near Harajuku in Tokyo. It was opened by the youma Ramua in episode 009 as part of one of Jadeite's schemes to collect energy to revive Queen Metallia. The store sold watches and clocks for extremely low prices, between fifty and seventy percent off their normal prices. These were extremely popular, and several people purchased timepieces, including Ikuko Tsukino, Naru Osaka, Haruna Sakurada, and Gurio Umino's mother (who actually bought seven). These timepieces actually caused the owners to become extremely stressed and impatient, and think that time was moving much faster than it actually was. Ramua and Jadeite then collected the massive amounts of energy generated by their stress.

Sailor Mercury and Sailor Moon went to the store to investigate the energy-stealing scheme, but found that it was closed. In order to get inside, Sailor Moon used her "Moon Tiara Action" attack to temporarily open a hole in the door. Inside, Ramua and the Sailor Senshi went through the large grandfather clock in the center of the store and emerged in an alternate dimension, surrounded by warped images of clocks. Inside this alternate dimension, time is completely unstable: it seems to move faster or slower, or even backwards at times! When the Sailor Senshi defeated Ramua, both the store and the alternate dimension disappeared forever.

Inside the store, there are several display cases all over which show off the diffrent clocks and watches. Lighting is click for larger version provided by several small orb-like lamps hanging from the ceiling, as well as lights on the wall and a golden chandalier. An enormous grandfather clock can be found in the center of the store. This clock collects energy from the store's patrons, and also serves as the entrance to an alternate dimension. Inside the alternate dimension, there are no real floors or walls; everything is green and black, and images of warped clocks float around. There are some "rooms" which are entered through "doors" which look like warped clocks.
