AKCISOT Atomic 10 Inch Wall Clock Analog Clocks for Indoor Kitchen, Battery Operated Clock for Bedroom Office Classroom Living Room(Silver)

Really fine clock. Such a good value. Easy to read from across a room, utterly silent, smooth sweeping second hand. Absolutely accurate week to week. I bought it in all white and also one with a gray frame and face with white numerals and hands. Both work perfectly and were easy to hang without needing the hooks provided.

I purchased this for my camper and was looking for a wall mounted 8 inch diameter face that I could see from anywhere. This clock fit the bill perfectly. It’s small, light, quiet as in “no ticking” and it remains accurate. It’s black numbers on white background face makes it easy to read from a distance. Mounting hardware is unique in a good way. I have it mounted on the wall adjacent to the camper door and the mounting hardware holds it in place with every door closing. A feature I didn’t give much thought to at the time but a plus when it arrived.

Unlike commercial and office locations, wall clocks are less commonly used in homes these days given omnipresent smart phones and myriad appliances such as stoves and microwaves that have digital clocks. However, the home gym is one place where the simple analog wall clock really shines, especially when lifting weights. In order to optimize body-building workouts an extremely important consideration is to accurately track time under tension for each set of reps for a given exercise. It is generally well accepted that your best gains stem from a total of 45-60 seconds under tension per set comprised of a roughly 1 second muscle contraction and 3 second release per rep. Although you can try silently counting the seconds for every rep this is not always consistent and it's easy to lose track, and looking at your watch or smartphone timer while performing most exercises isn't feasible. I've tried using a number of different "high tech" device aids such as using metronome apps on my phone and Echo devices alone or combined with my phone's timer, but the metronome sound gets old fast and doesn't track the duration of your set, and starting and stopping the timer hands-free hasn't worked well. The best solution I've discovered is the simple analog wall clock with sweep second hand, and this clock is perfect for that use. Placing one or more in a good wall position enables you to watch it during most exercises and accurately track each rep, and even if you cannot watch it during certain exercises (such as flat bench presses), you can easily track the total duration of the set to help you stay in the 45-60 second zone. Here's why this clock is especially well suited for this role: - Smooth, easy to read sweep second hand - Minute hand is long enough to clearly identify the minute markers for timing set durations when you can't watch the clock while performing the exercise or for timing rest intervals (both easy things to otherwise space out on, especially during very hard or lengthy workout sessions...) - Good size face at a very reasonable price - Absolutely quiet; no distracting ticking - Lightweight and easy to mount I really have nothing negative to say about this clock. Naturally I will update this review if anything negative crops up. But for now I can attest to the fact that mounting it in my home gym has eased the mental concentration burden of my weight lifting workouts and made for an overall better and more productive experience.

Item looks nice, it looks like it could maybe be wood when viewing from far away. I like how the hands color matches the item. Numbers are nice and big so easy to view from across the room. Runs completly silent. Nice item over all and price is fair.

It’s perfect. Clear , clean looking And keeps perfect time

I think this little clock is great. Why?...., it's smooth, totally silent, easy to read....and I think it reminds me of grade school!

This clock works perfect in my classroom, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. The color was spot on and the it’s a very quiet clock, I highly recommend it.

Very well priced and most important of all, very easy to read numbers. Silent. Works like a charm and uses one AA battery (not included). Very well priced.
