Despite its old-fashioned look, this radio-controlled clock is so accurate all the clocks in the house will be set to it. Perfect for hanging on the wall of a living room or great room, the large analog digits on the nine-inch face are easy to read from quite a distance. A polished brass pendulum swings gently back and forth below the face, visible through a glass window in the alder-wood case.

All this high-tech clock requires in the way of human intervention is the insertion of a new AA battery and a push of the proper time zone button. The hands of the clock immediately begin forwarding as the clock searches for the radio waves emitted from the National Institute of Standards and Technology station in Fort Collins, Colorado. The radio waves penetrate most homes and buildings, although the best placement of the clock is near a window and at least six feet away from an electrical appliance including a computer or television. A second AA battery is needed to swing the pendulum. The clock measures 21 by 13 by 3-1/2 inches and is covered by a two-year warranty. --Ann Bieri Features: Easy-to-read analog dials.
