Acctim 74667 Nardo 20cm Radio Controlled Grey Wall Clock

I've had this clock a couple of months now and so far it's showed the right time, which I'm very pleased about. No instructions came with it so I just put the battery in and let it do its thing. It self adjusts overnight I believe when the radio signal is at its strongest. Whatever it does, it nice looking with a clear and readable face. Quiet too. I certainly recommend, and will buy again.

Our previous radio controlled clock started giving us the wrong time each time it updated itself. This one is a perfect replacement.

This clock would have earned 5 stars but for the fact that there wasn't a single word with it on how to set it up. When I tried it set itself to 12.00 and then simply stopped. So, I took the battery out and tried again, same result. In fact, the same result on 5 attempts. It was then that I decided that it didn't work and so I requested and was granted a return. Then I decided to find another suitable clock to purchase and looked through almost the whole list, avoiding all Acctim products, of which there are a great many. I just happened to be looking at the listing for a run of the mill clock when I noticed the advice it gave; "Once the clock has set to 12.00 leave it for a few minutes whilst it establishes connection with the atomic clock. BINGO. I tried this on the Acctim and after a wait of a couple of minutes it showed me the correct time. As it was not an ugly clock I decided to cancel my return and keep the clock. It is now operating perfectly in my bedroom and I am perfectly happy with it. If only Acctim had bothered to give some setup advice they would have received 5 Stars.

Very easy to set up and hang. Easy to read from a distance. Plain and simple colour and style does not say “look at me” as some of the over designed clocks do - and goes well with stainless steel!

These are lovely clocks - picked a couple up, very legible and easy to read - love the colour options. These are radio controlled clocks, note that signal tends to be best overnight so they may need to be left alone to find the signal overnight. I think some simple instructions either on the box or as a slip in the box would be appreciated - just because there are some buttons on the back, for example 'rec' which I assume means 'search for signal', as well as a set and reset button - but generally you'll want to just pop a battery in these and leave them alone to do their thing - quality better than I expected for the price, pleasantly surprised - British brand which is nice to support. Clock is very quiet, I have much smaller analogue clocks which click much more loudly.

I’ve had the clock for a few days. At first it set itself to the correct time. Next day it was 10 minutes slow. When I reset it, it moved to 12 o/c waiting for a signal as it should do but a day or so later it had not set itself to the correct time and was still sitting at 12. I’ve reset it again a couple of times and each time it sets itself about an hour and a quarter fast. If I was to take the battery out, at least it would show the correct time twice a day. Maybe it needs to be in a different room to pick up the radio signal but if you can’t put it in the room you want it in, what’s the point? I’ll be sending it back.

I'm very pleased with this clock - it's cheap, accurate, easy to use, and quite pretty. On the back of the clock is a QR code for the instructions for the model number on the right of the code - or google 'acctim manual 74664' if you want to read them before buying. After inserting the battery, the clock will automatically begin searching for the MSF radio signal. The second hand will typically move to the 12 o'clock position and remain there until the signal is received and the time is set. I placed my clock by a North-facing (or whatever direction the Cumbria tranmitter is to you) window and left it overnight. There is a manual SET button which when pressed will move the hands forward until you release at the correct time and it will then continue as a normal clock until it receives the next signal.

This clock came with no instructions included to help us set it up. Fortunately I was able to find them online. Several times since we have bought it we have had to reset it, which takes a day to sort itself out with the radio control to set it to the correct time. It is on its last chance to work reliably. In future I will not be buying a remote control clock.

Bello da vedere ma non funziona. Pare che la versione MSF che ho ricevuto funzioni solo in Inghilterra e paesi vicini e comunque si regolerebbe sull'ora inglese. Inoltre la confezione non contiene né manuale né foglietto illustrativo. Insomma una fregatura

Ne veut pas se mettre à l’heure d’été !

Die Uhr funktioniert einwandfrei. Sehr schönes Design!

Viene de Inglaterra con un retraso tremendo en la fecha de entrega. Viene sin instrucciones de funcionamiento, ni siquiera en inglés. El reloj es relativamente bonito por el marco azul que lo pedí. El tamaño de números y el tamaño de las manillas hace que la lectura sea lejana y clara. Las manillas quizás sean excesivamente largas por lo que tapan las rayas del minutaje horario. El principal problema es que llevo dos días esperando a que se ponga automáticamente en hora con el radiocontrol y todavía no lo he conseguido. Me comentan que el reloj, en caso de conseguir sincronizarlo, será con la hora de Inglaterra (una hora menos) por lo que no me va a servir para la hora de España. He tenido que poner la hora a mano por lo que el reloj pierde toda su operatividad de radiocontrol. Por cierto estos relojes de radiocontrol tienen un movimiento de segundero que hace tic tac, no es un desplazamiento continuo.

Ich hätte dem 1. Bewerter glauben sollen. Die Uhr ist äußerlich genau wie beschrieben. Aber was nützt sie uns wenn sie immer die falsche Zeit anzeigt. So etwas sollte von Amazon überprüft werden, bevor sie für den Deutschen Markt im Sortiment aufgenommen wird. Die Bedienungsanleitung ist auch nur in Englisch. Obwohl man eigentlich keine braucht: Batterie rein und sie läuft, aber eben mit einer falschen Einstellung
