23. Owl Tattoo with Clock

In mythology, owls are guardians of the underworld or omens of death. Thus, when combined with the meaning of a clock tattoo (the passage of time), one can assume this tattoo refers to the finite time we each have. Done by the right artist in black and gray, this piece will age well.

24. Sleeve Tattoo Clock

If the clock motif is fascinating to you, consider going big with a black and gray sleeve featuring multiple clocks and symbols like wings, banners, roses, and anchors. Bigger is better if you’re looking to include a lot of meaning and characters. You can have a lot of detail, such as ornate clock frames, specific numbers, or times on the clocks, alongside geometric tattoo patterns that accentuate your arm’s natural shape.

25. Clock Tattoo Forearm

Clock tattoo designs go great on forearms because this body part has a round shape, perfect for placing any small or medium clock tattoo ideas. This superb spot also works well for any elaborate or grandfather clocks.

26. Clock Hand Tattoo

Choosing the right tattoo for your hand can be difficult, as this is the tattoo you’ll see the most. Make sure this tattoo is something you love or has a special meaning.

27. Shoulder Clock Tattoo

One of the top placements for a clock tattoo is right on the shoulder. It perfectly accommodates the round shape of the clock and has plenty of space to work with if you’re looking at a larger or more intricate design. 

28. Clock Tattoo on Arm

Clock tattoos can work well anywhere on the arms, but especially on the upper arms or biceps, where the tattoo can highlight the muscles and shape of the arm. Easy to hide away at work, this is a great spot for anyone around tattoo hesitant crowds.
