Seiko 12 Inch Grain Finish Wall Clock with Numerals and Dual Quarter Hour Chimes

Estoy muy satisfecho con el reloj de pared Seiko. Desde el primer momento se nota que está fabricado con materiales de excelente calidad, lo cual se refleja tanto en su apariencia como en su funcionamiento. Tiene un tamaño ideal para una sala de tamaño medio: no resulta imponente ni demasiado discreto, simplemente perfecto para armonizar con el espacio.Los números son grandes y legibles, lo que permite ver la hora fácilmente incluso desde una buena distancia. Además, el mecanismo funciona de forma silenciosa y precisa. Los sonidos del reloj son una grata sorpresa: emite los clásicos tonos Westminster y Whittington con una claridad notable, lo que le da un toque elegante y tradicional al ambiente.En resumen, el precio está más que justificado por la calidad del producto. Es una compra que vale completamente la pena si buscas un reloj funcional, estético y con detalles sonoros que aportan carácter.

Excellent clock. I chose this because I liked the hourly chime sound. And of course it’s much cheaper than the mechanical version. I appreciate the volume switch which allows me to trick the wife into enjoying it with me as I slowly increase the volume as time goes by to complete my master plan.

It looks like a mechanical, and ever the tones sound authentic. I'm pleasantly surprised.

We are very satisfied with the product and the way it was sent to us; also with the solid packaging. Thank you very much.

Well, what a nice clock! I love everything about it: the two sets of chimes, the volume control, and the looks. Easy to adjust too. Now I have to figure out where I'll mount it. lol

I LOVE THIS CLOCK! It's everything I was looking for plus much more and at a very reasonable price.I completely lose track of time since retiring. This plus having ADHD and being very distractable has been causing me a lot of stress. Recently, it occurred to me that an old-fashioned chiming clock would probably help.I obsessed over what type of clock for weeks. I eventually ordered two thru Amazon, but each disappointed me greatly. Both were motion clocks that played part of a song on the hour as pieces of its face broke apart and moved. They each sounded good to me, but their large, bulky case and/or all parts of their face were made of plastic and looked cheaply made. Yet, they were expensive! And the songs they both played were too much of a distraction for me.I learned from those two failures that I needed a wall clock with a face large enough - and with numbers big and easy enough - to be read from across a 30+ distance. It also had to have a nice wooden case and a chime I enjoyed hearing but that also was not too long and distracting. I wondered if I would ever find one to suit my needs. Then, I came across this one!It didn't look like much in the picture, but it was a good size and had an easy to read face for my husband's failing eyes to see from across a large room. And it was WOOD! And it chimed on the quarter hours as well as at the top of the hour! Never had heard of that before, but it seemed like a big plus for someone with ADHD. Well, it turned out to be the BEST clock I could ever have imagined for myself!This clock is similar, but BEAUTIFUL. The dark, finely grained wooden case is made well. It's face is made of real metal and glass, no plastic! I love its simple face, which comes in either Roman numerals or regular numbers. There's great contrast between the color of those numerals and the background color of the face, which I found was very important for easy reading from a good distance. Best of all, though, is its chimes.There are two choices of chime on each clock, both bring very traditional. I think we're choose Gothic. Whatever, it is something my husband and I both look forward to hearing thruout the day. It even plays a portion of the full chime sequence on each quarter hour so you can actually tell whether it is 1/4-past, half-past, or 3/4-past the hour by the length of that chime sequence!I find that feature so interesting that it (almost!) always gets my attention, unlike a boring hourly gong. This clock with its quarter-hour chimes keeps me as grounded in time as I think is truly possible - without being too intrusive! It's telling me now that it's 7pm and I need to make dinner now.To sum up, it's the PERFECT clock for someone with traditional taste who needs some extra help knowing what time it is. It was beautifully boxed and I believe it has a two-year warranty if you register the purchase online. Although Amazon gives it a different model no. than you'll see on the manufacturer's website, it's the same exact clock at the same price as is sold there. I very highly recommend this high-quality wall clock.

I returned this item because volume control was ineffective.You replaced item with another like item.Same problem with second clock. The volume control is not very effective. However I am keeping this item.Manufacturer,SEIKO, should be advised of problem
