The original design featured various elements such as the cube logo of the time and stills from [[Bona Dicta]] and [[Cooking With]].  The same design was used on the website at the time (finally dropped in early 2003), in publicity posters for 1999-2000, and in [[Nony nony nah]].

This design of the clock lasted until Autumn 2000 when the YSTV logo was changed, and the current look was adopted.  This version has even appeared in a number of shows itself (as opposed to introducing them) including [[Solipsism]] (in some sort of in-joke or spoof), [[Small Screen]] (in a behind-the-scenes segment) and [[Good Morning Campus]] (as an on-screen time-piece).

On occasions when [[Grapevine]] is down for maintenance the clock has been used as the on-air sustainer.  There is also a brief glimpse of it when playing out programmes, originally to hide the Sky info bar when changing channels but this still happens today long after the death of the digibox.  This useage has on occasions given rise to YSTV being named "clock soc", implying that it is all we ever show. It also had a reputation for a while for being inaccurate by a few minutes.
