Description
This round alarm clock pairs a glossy black plastic case with a crisp white face and bezel, a simple two-colour look that suits any bedside. It stands 10cm tall, 9.5cm wide and 4cm deep, so it sits beside a lamp and a book without crowding the table. The dial carries bold Arabic numerals with fine minute marks round the edge, which makes the time easy to read at a glance, and a slim red second hand adds a small flash of colour against the white. The case has a vintage finish, rests on two rounded feet and has a neat knob on top, giving it the familiar outline of a traditional alarm clock.
Its natural place is the bedside table, where the alarm and snooze do their daily work: when the alarm sounds, the snooze lets you steal a little longer before getting up. The sweep movement means the second hand glides smoothly round the dial rather than stepping from mark to mark, a good choice for a room where you would rather not hear a clock at night. It is just as useful on a desk, in a study or in a guest room. The black and white works with monochrome schemes and sits comfortably beside wood, metal or painted furniture, and it makes a practical gift for anyone who prefers a proper clock.
The clock runs on one AA battery, which fits in a compartment at the back, and the time and alarm are set from the back too. The case is plastic, with a glossy surface that is simple to keep clean. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe the case with a slightly damp cloth when needed, keeping moisture away from the dial. Stand it where you can reach it from bed, and it will soon become part of the morning routine.
