Review on Mondaine A995.Clock.16SBB SBB Metal Wall Clock by Anthony Grover

Revainrating 4 out of 5

What a mistake in my review

I saw this clock at MoMA in NY this summer and it looked great on the wall. Decided to purchase it through Walmart. The price for the clock was steep ($300) but I was buying Mondaine quality clock after all. Boy was I wrong! It had the cheapest Chinese clock mechanism you can probably find. The casing was metal/aluminium, which was nice. The design of the clock is great, this was the selling point. But the flaws outweighed the benefits. The hour hand and minute hand would not align at 12 o'clock. As a result, the hour clock would never show proper time. This was a big disappointment, despite the promo leaflet from Mondaine said that every clock is quality checked. Returned immediately to Walmart! Mondaine disappointed with lowering their standards.UPDATE:I re-ordered the clock, gave it another chance. The clock hands were showing the time properly. All was fine. Changed to 4 stars, considering the cheap mechanism, and hassle the first time around.

Pros
  • High-Quality Construction - Made from high-quality materials, this wall clock is built to last and is sure to provide accurate timekeeping for years to come
Cons
  • The clock does not offer any additional features beyond telling time, such as an alarm, timer, or stopwatch
