Review on German Cuckoo Clock 8 Day Movement Chalet Style by Bobby Lawson

This item had one of the "decorations" broken off. It wasn't damaged, looks like those who stuck it on forgot to use enough to keep it there! In this case, a bit of wood glue made the replacement possible. The watch as a whole appears to be well put together. There is nothing extraordinary in this regard. The problem we had in getting it to show a reasonably accurate time is a HUGE task and we've given up. The pendulum has been adjusted - this is nothing new to us. Design -- we got even closer, hit a pretty accurate time, and then just when you thought it was almost done -- it changed - dramatically! and nothing has changed. This got more and more frustrating to the point where he was extending his time so much that he would soon be over an hour ahead of him! It seemed that no changes in the pendulum mattered after that. Whether you have returned to a previous post or not. It will only tell the time to go faster and faster. While we think it's well built, the clock's accuracy was an issue that now just sits and isn't used. That in itself is disappointing because it was a gift for the woman who is now disappointed that it didn't work. I don't know if it's broken, we just know we can't get it to show the time no matter what we do. even almost exactly. You don't have to reset your watch every day to be accurate within a few seconds and see its current status, you should do it more than once a day! Something is wrong, but we can't get over it.
