Customer Reviews

Radio Contolled Clock Purchase
I am extremely pleased with this purchase. For me it is ideal because it is easy to read at a distance, my eyesight is not as good as it used to be plus I am used to the 24 hour system.

Setting up was very simple and straight forward and because it is radio controlled I do not need to correct it.

It was a very fast delivery, with no damage to the
contents.

Runs like clockwork.
Exactly what I was looking for - a functional, easy to read radio controlled clock for use in a study, not a domestic ornament. The requirement was that it should have a white face with clear large black Arabic numerals and minute marks ... not Roman numerals, nor just marks, and certainly not a blank face. Sweep second hand was also a requirement. The 24 hour numerals were not required but do not get in the way.

It is important to remember that any radio controlled clock can take a while to sync to the transmitter, but this is a feature of the location and orientation of the clock and (I think) the internal timing of the radio receiver. In my case the clock locked on in less than five minutes, and I've seen a lot longer times.

I can't comment on the durability of the product as I have not had it long enough.

So far extremely pleased - I can almost read it without my spectacles, and that's saying something.

DISAPPOINTED
It's difficult to review a product when you have not had one that works! Still waiting for second one to be collected after two weeks.
