Excellent watch in watch

This is a fine watch, as beautiful as a similar watch being sold for a much higher price. The carillon has a gentle tone and the clock shows the exact time. Here are some tips. You must read and follow the instructions in full to set the clock so that the chime and time match. Don't put in a battery and don't think your job is done because there is a sequence of events that must occur for your watch to start properly.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Empty

Don't waste your time with this mantel clock

This was supposed to be my wife's birthday present.

The movement is made from cheap Chinese plastic found at Walmart for $19.95, and the bells are tinny and

Exactly what I was hoping for

This watch seemed like the perfect price for a very nice watch with battery operated plastic inside. Based on some other reviews I think I was lucky that my watch arrived undamaged.

Now I'm just in love with these clocks and chimes and everything. Complaints about the "tinny" sound infuriate

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • No paint required
