Worst of Amazon - 2 out of 3 borken July 18, 2008 I purchased 3 of these and two were not functioning properly out of box. I contacted support and they initiated a lengthy two week email guidance program, most of which was focussed on using good quality battries. After email support they asked me to ship these to La Crosse (at my expense) for warranty repair! SHAMELESS PPL.
Partially Broke Already??? June 13, 2008 Great looking clock. Looks sharp on the wall in my office, and the atomic/auto time setting feature works well. However, one week into it and the second hand stops working. The minute and hour still tell the correct time, but the second hand is stuck at :08. Not a big enough problem to send back and I really like the classic appearance. I would not hesitate to buy another one, hopefully with second hand with more that a one week life span.
The minute hand works great May 28, 2008 I've had this clock for about eight months; it's gone through two daylight savings time transitions. The minute hand has always worked flawlessly, keeping me up-to-date with the current minute of the hour with the accuracy of the world's most powerful atomic clock.
Unfortunately, I can't say the same about the second hand and the hour hand. When it arrived, the plastic second hand was so curved that it rubbed against the other hands and got stuck until I opened up the glass and managed to bend it back enough to turn freely.
The hour hand seems to have a mind of its own. Even though La Crosse swears up and down that the clock receives daylight savings time information from the radio atomic clock signal, it flubbed both of the new daylight savings time transitions, meaning I had to adjust it twice for each transition. Just recently it has decided to make up for its previous confusion by advancing the hour again, which is helpful in the mornings when you realize you actually have an extra hour before you have to go to work. Thanks, WT-3102B!
So, if you really only need to know that it's ten after the hour, without knowing the hour, this is your clock.
Atomic (?) Clock May 8, 2008 I have been using this unit for about ten months now. The clock runs well but I have already replaced the battery once. It seems that, if the clock is fast, periodically the clock has to pace through the 12 hours to reset. The other comments about this clock not adapting to the time change are absolutely true according to my experience also. In the fall, I had relatively little problem because I set the unit to Central time instead of Eastern until the unit finally corrected for the time change about a month later. Spring time change left me an hour off since the unit has no Atlantic setting. I did get them to send me a return number but, since it would cost me to send it back, I decided that it would not be worth my returning the clock...Caveat emptor!
Atomic clock April 29, 2008 Wanted a small analog atomic clock and this fits the bill to a T. Looks great in our kitchen and bathroom.
