jomparis Pendulum Wall Clock Gifts for Dad,Dad Gifts for Christmas Retro Quartz Decorative Battery Operated Wall Clock for Living Room, Office, Home Decor(16 Inch, Bronze)

This clock was just what I was looking for. Wanted a wood "look" clock in a grandfather style with a pendulum. Most options were either too expensive or too large. The "finish" on the plastic housing gives a nice appearance of aged wood stain. The dimensions of this clock were perfect for the wall space I needed to fill. I did have to follow the manufacturer's suggestion of removing the back to securely attach the pendulum to the swing arm. The slot for the AA battery was too tight to get the battery to completely seat. But, it went in far enough to start the mechanism. Only had it a day so can't speak to the movement's accuracy. We'll see. To anyone complaining that this is cheap - uh, you only paid $24 bucks for it. This is not an heirloom piece. It's not going to be a bequest in your will (unless you have a lousy estate). But, if you're looking for an inexpensive, compact grandfather styled wall clock with pendulum action - look no farther...UPDATE: Clock movement running for 4-days... Spot-on accurate...

Love it

After two years the pendulum had stopped moving. Turns out the metal plate in back had become magnetized. Once I took off the pendulum attachment and moved the metal plate on the back of the pendulum through a $6 demagnetizer several times, movement was restored. There's probably more expensive ways of demagnetizing the metal plate, but this was good enough to restore movement again for what ultimately is a decorative element. Also it does not handle even cool temperatures very well. if the temperature gets near or below 50 degrees Fahrenheit, the clock will lose time, usually lagging several hours more each night.

I really wanted this style with a pendulum and second hand, however after about 2-3 months it quit working. I kept thinking the battery needed changing, but I have learned I have to just go to the back and roll the battery back and forth and reset the time, and it will usually start working again. It wasn't so bad when it happened every month or so, But now I have owned it 5 months and it is happening almost daily. It appears I had a 3 month window to return it. :-( I would actually exchange it for another in hopes that I just got a dud and another would work better. If the seller reads this and would exchange, please contact me.

This is a very nice looking clock. It keeps perfect time and it looks great on my wall in the living room.

Llegó con la parte de abajo rota. Se puede ver en la foto. Cuando lo recibí lo notifiqué pero nunca recibí una respuesta. No he recibido contestación a mi reclamo de haber recibido mi reloj roto al día de hoy 7 de marzo 2023.

I think it is a "inexpensive" faux of the real thing. And high on the wall, it really does look authentic. BUT I spent a lot of time with the Pendulum; ie taking the back off etc. It just DID NOT stay on the so called "hook", very frustating to say the least. I wound up sending it back of course and ordering the 'real' one. Instructions were easy but inaccurate from the get-go.

The media could not be loaded. This was a little smaller than I expected, but I really do love it
