Munich, Germany: Some 366 clocks cover the walls in the living room of 76-year-old Werner Stechbarth's apartment in Munich, the haul from a life spent criss-crossing the globe.
The yearly move to daylight saving time is a busy period for the pensioner, who has to manually adjust every one of his timepieces.
Work started well ahead of the beginning of European summer time early Sunday morning, when the continent's clocks will skip forward an hour.
"I start one or two weeks before and I continue after the clocks change, stress free," Stechbarth told AFP, sitting in his lounge.
