It was designed and built by the German tower clock manufacturer Perrot Gmbh & Co. KG Turmuhren und Läuteanlagen. The massive clock was manufactured in “only” four years. The tower was completed in 2012 after ten years of intense construction work. Its four clock faces are each 43 metres in diameter. It not only houses the Fairmont hotel, but also the Makkah Clock. The 601 meter tall and 120 stories high tower is part of the Abraj Al-Bait skyscraper complex. The largest clock in the world actually consists of four clocks, one on each side of the Makkah Royal Clock Tower.
