Description
This oval alarm clock keeps things simple, with a glossy black plastic case, a clear analogue face and a beep alarm to start the day. The dial is dark grey with large Arabic numerals in pale green and dotted minute markers around the edge. It has white hour and minute hands, a red seconds hand and a slim yellow hand that shows the alarm time. It is compact at 6.2cm tall, 9cm wide and 3cm deep, so it sits neatly in a small space without crowding it.
Its small footprint makes it a natural fit for a bedside table, where the big numerals are easy to read at a glance when you wake. It works just as well on a desk, a kitchen windowsill or a bookshelf, and its size means it tucks into a weekend bag for nights away. The beep alarm is a straightforward wake-up call. There is no snooze button, which suits anyone who prefers to get up on the first alarm rather than drift back off.
Inside, a quartz movement keeps steady time. The clock stands on two small feet, so it needs no wall or fixings. It is powered by the AA battery size, also sold as MN1500 or LR6, which fits behind a cover on the back. Batteries are not included, so it is worth having AA batteries to hand. To keep it looking its best, dust the case with a soft dry cloth and wipe the front with a slightly damp cloth when needed. Set it beside a lamp and a short stack of books for a tidy bedside, or stand it on a desk with other black accents for a neat, practical finish.
