Acctim 74662 Nardo 20cm Radio Controlled White Wall Clock

Very good value and works well. No instructions provided; this could be a problem if you are not familiar with radio controlled clocks and do not know that they have a mind of their own! The basic method is to fit the battery, put it near a north facing window, watch it do it's thing and leave it alone overnight: in the morning it will have picked up the radio signal and set itself (usually). Sometimes complications do arise, so instructions should really be included. Otherwise a good clear and accurate clock that will set itself when the clocks go forward and back. Use a good AA battery and it shold easily run for more than one year without any attention, but keep it a few feet from any electronic devices that might generate radio interference. A good buy.

Really neat and clear. Set itself within seconds. Great value for money

Picked up radio and set itself within perhaps 5 minutes. Not the smooth running second hand of other Acctim quiet clocks, and not as quiet as those are. Came with a couple of scratches to the front perspex. I let it slide, but it's annoying. Why no film on the perspex?

Nice clock, just a shame there are no instructions about the buttons on the back. By trial and error I got it started, and so far it works fine. Looks very clean, with good minute markings [Update after 5 months] Now keeps stopping, so changed the battery - will see... Also slightly annoying, as at midnight or thereabouts it starts to rewind, so not good if used as a timer

A good simple wall clock at a good price and well put together. Change over to BST automatically no problem.

I’ve had the clock for a few days. At first it set itself to the correct time. Next day it was 10 minutes slow. When I reset it, it moved to 12 o/c waiting for a signal as it should do but a day or so later it had not set itself to the correct time and was still sitting at 12. I’ve reset it again a couple of times and each time it sets itself about an hour and a quarter fast. If I was to take the battery out, at least it would show the correct time twice a day. Maybe it needs to be in a different room to pick up the radio signal but if you can’t put it in the room you want it in, what’s the point? I’ll be sending it back.

I was somewhat a grumpy old man, that it came without any instructions at all, nothing in or on the box. But a quick Google revealed it was best to hang it on a raised window position (after inserting a battery and removing the sticker from the front glass,) for a few hours to get the time signal. When you put the battery in, its normal for the hands of the clock to rotate seeking the time signal setting. It will stop at 12 if the signal isn't found. If you let the clock hang from a window inside for a couple of hours or more, it will allow the "Greenwich mean time signal" to be updated on the clock. Then you can position it in your house or office. It isn't a silent clock, it ticks, it has a second hand, it is easy to read the numbers on its face. I hope this review helps you.

Couldn’t get it to set the time but my son went on the internet and found how to set it manually. When the clocks went forward it changed so all is well.

Bello da vedere ma non funziona. Pare che la versione MSF che ho ricevuto funzioni solo in Inghilterra e paesi vicini e comunque si regolerebbe sull'ora inglese. Inoltre la confezione non contiene né manuale né foglietto illustrativo. Insomma una fregatura

Ne veut pas se mettre à l’heure d’été !

Die Uhr funktioniert einwandfrei. Sehr schönes Design!

Viene de Inglaterra con un retraso tremendo en la fecha de entrega. Viene sin instrucciones de funcionamiento, ni siquiera en inglés. El reloj es relativamente bonito por el marco azul que lo pedí. El tamaño de números y el tamaño de las manillas hace que la lectura sea lejana y clara. Las manillas quizás sean excesivamente largas por lo que tapan las rayas del minutaje horario. El principal problema es que llevo dos días esperando a que se ponga automáticamente en hora con el radiocontrol y todavía no lo he conseguido. Me comentan que el reloj, en caso de conseguir sincronizarlo, será con la hora de Inglaterra (una hora menos) por lo que no me va a servir para la hora de España. He tenido que poner la hora a mano por lo que el reloj pierde toda su operatividad de radiocontrol. Por cierto estos relojes de radiocontrol tienen un movimiento de segundero que hace tic tac, no es un desplazamiento continuo.

Ich hätte dem 1. Bewerter glauben sollen. Die Uhr ist äußerlich genau wie beschrieben. Aber was nützt sie uns wenn sie immer die falsche Zeit anzeigt. So etwas sollte von Amazon überprüft werden, bevor sie für den Deutschen Markt im Sortiment aufgenommen wird. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist auch nur in Englisch. Obwohl man eigentlich keine braucht: Batterie rein und sie läuft, aber eben mit einer falschen Einstellung
