PIC Clock - Final Version

My PIC clock is almost done. Only thing remaining is that to give it a nice look. (at the moment, it is inside an ice cream box and it deserves a better place than that). It has following functionalities;
• 12H/24H mode; when in 12H mode, a PM indicator is used.
• Battery backup; when the mains power is not available, it automatically gets power from the batteries and keeps the clock ticking.
• Ability to work totally on batteries. i.e. When the mains power is not available, it automatically switches into battery mode and the display goes blank. But if you want to see the time, you can get back the normal display manually.

Here are some pics

(Video quality is not that great but clear enough to see that the clock is running :-) )
