Review on ⏰ La Crosse Technology WT-3129B 12" Atomic Analog Wall Clock in Black by Michael Tegan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works as intended. It uses the radio to sync - it's not magic and may not work everywhere

In my case the clock is mounted on the wall across from Fort Collins half a continent away. They synchronized with the time signal. in less than 2 hours. There are many factors that can affect the propagation and reception of a radio signal (between walls, mountains, multipath signal propagation, weather, terrain, interfering electronic devices, etc.), according to YMMV. A synchronization error cannot be the fault of the clock, but the problem with the radio reception itself - La Crosse cannot do anything about these factors. The radio doesn't work everywhere. Please keep that in mind as you read some of the less than enthusiastic reviews. Even if you stop waiting and set the clock manually, it will still try and possibly sync later. For those who own a watch -- there is an FAQ on La Crosse's website with some details not found in the owner's brochure. One of the hints shows how to perform a factory reset.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Long Wait
