better than imagined.and it has to be returned!

I must have taken up 6 months of my shopping life, normally a fun time, looking for a replica or a repro or a similar clock to this Mondaine extra large wall clock. I purchased 3 clocks, hoping to fill the bill. There are many similar clock faces, trying to look this good. But they do not. Also some clocks, like one i bought, have the illusion that they have a silver bezel around the face. One of the cheap (1/10th the cost of this Mondaine) version had no depth, no bezel, but in the 2D picture,

Pros
  • Home Décor Products
Cons
  • The clock is quite lightweight and flimsy, making it easy to knock off the wall accidentally

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…

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

Bought it from Zurich airport

I got this from a duty-free shop at Zurich airport last month during transit. I paid the full price of CHF 395 in Hope of buying the real deal. I was assured by the lady that the case is Chinese but the movement is Swiss. Very disappointed that the movement is Thai. Only time will tell how long these last. You really need to tilt it in light to see this bogus engraving. I will revise this review if it fails in the coming months. If you don't hear from me, assume it's still working. I did get…

Pros
  • Silent Mechanism - The clock's silent mechanism ensures that it won't disturb your peace and quiet, making it perfect for use in a bedroom or study
Cons
  • The clock's design may not fit well with all home decor styles

Looks Great!: my feedback

Iconic design, and very easy to read. I love the red second hand. Only reason 4 starts is: surface of the glass/plastic is very reflective and hard to see when there is a lot of natural light in the room.Other than that, O love it and would purchase again.

Pros
  • German clock movement
Cons
  • The hands of the clock are too thin, making it hard to tell the time accurately

Mondaine clock failed within 3 months

The product looks great, but unfortunately it failed after three months and the cost of returning it is not worth while. Its a very simple product and not worth the cost - even though it looks great.

Pros
  • Hardened mineral crystal
Cons
  • The clock's hands are not backlit, making it difficult to read in low lighting situations

Great product.but: my feedback

Mondaine Clocks are fantastic, super high quality as only the Swiss know how to do and of course keeps great time.Bad parts: the Australian distributor has got the market locked up so you can't buy and ship to Aus from Walmart - nasty, anti-customer behaviour we get typically from distributors here, I'm ashamed Walmart tkaes part. Second bad point: shipping to Australia is ridiculously expensive. I know we're a small country and no-one in America knows where we are, but with a little bit of…

Pros
  • Wall Clocks
Cons
  • The clock's ticking is quite loud and can be disruptive to some people's peace and quiet

DOES NOT WORK and they won't give me my money back

This clock is brand new and it doesn't work. We changed the batteries twice and the clock doesn't display the right time. Since we JUST missed the return window, the seller won't give me a refund. We are incredibly frustrated and disappointed. Do not buy this clock and don't trust this seller.

Pros
  • Large, Easy-to-Read Display - Featuring a large, easy-to-read display, this wall clock is perfect for those who need to quickly glance at the time without straining their eyes
Cons
  • The clock's battery life is relatively short, requiring frequent replacement and maintenance
