HERE’S a timely brain teaser to test your eyesight and intelligence.
Everyone knows the clocks go forward tonight, but only those with a high IQ can spot the clock in this picture within 5 seconds.
The puzzle is tough because the clock is hidden amongst a cluster of other round objects.
It’s nestled between dart boards, compasses, roulette wheels and CDs.
There are also archery targets, thermostats, smiley faces and pressure gauges.
Only one in six people can spot the clock within the time limit.
As well as a high IQ, you can boast to have the eyes of a hawk if you pull this off.

But back to the task at hand – how are you getting on?
Time is almost certainly up by now, but keep scanning.
If you’re struggling to clock the clock, here’s a clue.
