SEIKOSeiko Wall Clock Quiet Sweep Second Hand Dark Brown Solid Oak Case

Quiet good qualty wall clock. Nice looking.

Great quality, keeps time accurately and is a style that goes well in any room.

Looks lovely and works perfectly to the second!

This clock is so nice. It keeps time, looks nice, and it is silent. Looks great in our home.

I LOVE MY CLOCK!We printed a Denny's logo on sticker paper (from Staples) and carefully cut it out and placed it between the word SEIKO and the center of the clock. It looks like it is a "Denny's clock."In other words it is a fun, funky cool clock that you can easily remove the front glass on and replace if you want to logo yours up to make it even more fun. The wood grain is "okay" up close, but from 5-10' away it is "wonderful." NO TIME LOSS. The clock is accurate so far (4 months in). I am looking at it right now. It is 100% silent (like a clock ninja or something). The gold (tone) second hand sweeps smoothly (not a quartz tick-tick-tick action) and the hour and minute hands flow smoothly as well. Takes two batteries, easy to mount (one nail or a screw). Very light clock. Best use is to put it up at least 5-10 feet, preferably 10-20 from where the average person will glance at it. This way the illusion that it is a more expensive clock will not be shattered.It has a faux retro/antique feel to it. I really think the Denny's logo helped. It seemed a bit plain at first. Don't be fooled into thinking that this is real wood. It is high quality resin, and while it says "dark brown" it really is a medium, maybe even a 40% (being the lighter side of true medium) brown. Great clock if you never fuss with it.

We bought this as a gift for aging parents who are fairly traditional in their tastes and, after looking at hundreds of wall clocks, ended up trusting that a Seiko would have a higher quality look and feel. It does. The face plate has expensive-looking gold trim that picks up the light as you move through the room, the wood bezel is nicely finished, even the plastic back is a nice plastic. The sweep second hand is, as other reviews have cited, completely silent. The numbers are crisp, large and easy to read from across a large room, another nice feature for older folks. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that it is a little pricey. But, compared to some other clocks for 20 bucks less I would expect that it will last a lot longer. A simple, traditional, elegant item that works.

The media could not be loaded. this clock is silent, runs smoothly. It is expensive, but I love the look and good quality.Today I just change the clock to day light saving and the change time is so simple. Finished in less than one minute.

The wooden trim of the clock just received is darker and more red than on the picture. I like it even better, but I did not expect this shade. It came with mercury- and cadmium-free AA not rechargeable battery (insulated by a piece of paper) and a wood screw to hang it on the wall was attached.The stated size is quite vague: "Unisex - adult" :-) The stained oak wood frame is 1.25" wide and the clock's diameter is 13 inches. It is larger than all our wall clocks.The second hand, as well as the circles on the dial are brushed gold tone, the numerals as well as hour and minute hands are black. The Arabic numerals are 3 cm tall. Overall design provides pretty good visibility from a distance.The instructions (in English, French, German, Spanish, and Chinese) refer to a start/stop switch (some models don't have it), but there is no such switch on the movement case. They also state the battery life is about one year. The adjustment mechanism has a double pointed arrow, so it does not matter which way you turn the hands.The SKP quartz movement has 0 jewels and is made in China, just like the case, and the box. There is a label stating the weight: 0.84 kg / 1.85 lbs.The limited warranty certificate (neither signed nor dated) states it is for one year. Amazon offers a 2-year warranty on the same model, and Princeton Watches (authorized Seiko dealer) extended it even to three years. However, the glass and clock accessories (?) are not covered and you have to mail it on your cost to New Jersey.So far it looks great and runs really quiet. I'll update my review in a few months, after I can assess its performance.
