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.

Brilliant clock. Working well so far. Took a while for the signal to come through but after a bit of fiddling and resetting it finally got there. Good clear face and the tick is not too loud for me. Good in a therapy room.

Nice clock, it does tick. I have it in my bathroom. A few times since I have had it, and in the early hours, it sounds like someone is tapping, but the clock has lost signal, so does the re-set thing.. after about 10 minutes in gets the signal and sorts itself out..

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'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.

Intermittent fault after about a year I bought this Acctim Nardo 20cm radio-controlled clock from Amazon about a year ago and initially I was very pleased with it. It looks good and, when working correctly, keeps accurate time. However, I have now experienced the same fault twice. The hands suddenly start moving continuously around the clock face and do not stop. The only way I have been able to recover it is by removing and restarting the battery, after which it appears to reset and work normally again. This is particularly disappointing for a radio-controlled clock, as I would expect the mechanism to be reliable and automatically correct itself without getting stuck in a continuous cycle. As the problem has now happened twice, I consider this to be an intermittent fault rather than a one-off incident. I would be interested to know whether other owners have experienced the same problem. Good clock when it works, but the intermittent hand-movement fault is concerning.

It's an attractive clock and it keeps perfect time. Put the batteries in, it defaulted to 12 and then paused for the signal to cut in and set the time. That took maybe ten minutes, and it's been perfect ever since. I won't have to touch it until the battery dies. A kitchen essential.

It was easy to set up, just put the battery in and leave it to do its thing. It seems to be keeping good time. A bit smaller than the kitchen clock I had but still easy to read the time. Plastic frame does look a bit cheap, but then it wasn't an expensive clock, and once it's on the wall you can't tell, that goes for the faint ticking too. I brought it for It's ability to set It's own time so it doesn't need to be done manually each spring and autumn; so I'll have to wait till March to see if it works. Update 28 Oct 2024. While the clock is still working fine, it didn't update itself when the clocks went back/forward on any of the changes since I brought it, I even waited a few days after the time changes to see if it would reset, it didn't. I had to get it down off the wall and remove & replace the battery before it set to the right time again, which defeats the purpose for having the clock. Disappointing. I've reduced my original rating to 3 stars, though I think it's more a 2 5.

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
