Review on Metalware Brass Industrial Age Mantel Clock by Design Toscano - 13 Inch by Jason Burnside

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good but less pretty than pictured

"Industrial Age Tuscan Fireplace Clock Design" was well packaged, no damage. There are some differences in appearance compared to the reference image used in the Revain listing (see photos): The color of the frame appears darker, with a darker bronze than brass finish. The upper curved strap is attached to the watch rather clumsily and inelegantly (see photo). The back cover of the watch is held in place by a small rivet and swings freely (doesn't inspire confidence). The internal movement has an outer plastic coating that is extremely thin; When inserting or removing the battery, be careful not to tear it. Of course, this is generally a "set and forget" item (until the battery dies) and it looks good from afar. The face is big enough to be seen from a medium sized room and for the price it's not bad.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was
