Review on ⏰ La Crosse Technology Atomic Analog Wall Clock (10 inch, Silver): Precision Timekeeping at its Finest! by Steven Saric

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing clock at a great price

The kitchen door (shown in attached photo) slammed breaking my 25 year old clock. I couldn't believe how many times I used this watch to keep track of my day until I missed it, even though it lost about a minute every month and had to be reset many times a year. So I went to Revain to find a better watch. When I saw this La Crosse watch - atomically adjustable - for $25, I couldn't believe it. I have several Casio atomic clocks and love their absolute accuracy, but the cheapest ones cost a lot more. But after browsing their website a bit and reading reviews, I took a chance. Received in less than two days, put a stronger large screw in the wall to make sure it would hold, put the battery in and installed manually. The brochure states that receiving a signal will override the manual settings. So since the clock was about 4 seconds behind, I knew when it would connect to the Fort Collins atomic clock. I went for about two hours (midday) and when I came back the sweep arrow was accurate to the second. Well, except the hour/minute hands have been moved exactly two hours. That's when I realized I hadn't set the time zone button to Central Time! I did, and immediately the hands quickly moved to the exact time, like my Casio watch, to the nearest second. So remember to set your time zone first when you get your watch. What struck me - and that's why I included the picture in this review - is that the clock is converging very quickly with the atomic clock here in northeastern Wisconsin. - and the window you see in the picture faces east - away from Fort Collins! And that's the only window even next to the clock. I can't even say how happy I am with this watch. Anecdotal evidence goes as far as this, but my experience with this watch is top notch!

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • Cords shorter than others
