So, I have guessed that the V stands for Vertical ...
Is it noisy ?, I'm sure it's not only to power the clock ?

Yes and yes it powers a generator inside the clock box. :O)

Nice and nautical to be using the wind and the stars!

Well I did not understand the purpose, but done at home is cool ...

Hotz,
it a windmill.
There is someone in my town that has got an autonomous house, he has one like that in his garden.
The blades are maybe 4 or 5 meters long, from maybe 1 meter from the ground.
He was not authorized to have the big one in a star shape, but this model he was.
But his neighbors were complaining about the noise (I think the manufacturer did something to fix it) and the "psychedelic" effect of it, when it's turning and when sun rays go through it ...
But there are always people to complain ...

YES SO IT GOS AROUND and around by WITH THE WIND AND TURNS A GENERATOR WHICH PRODUCES ELECTRICITY which is then stored in battery's. :o)
mine makes very little noise.
