Product Information
Full details
The Rackhams Aeroplane Wall Clock is designed for aviation enthusiasts and those who appreciate vintage-inspired decor, offering a unique blend of 1950s aesthetic charm and practical storage. Its primary benefit is its dual-purpose functionality, serving as both an accurate timekeeper and a display shelf for small collectibles on its wings. A potential caveat for users is that its substantial 96 cm width requires a dedicated, unobstructed wall space, making it less suitable for smaller or cluttered rooms.

FAQs
What are the dimensions of the clock?
The clock measures 30 cm in height, 96 cm in width, and 19 cm in depth.
Can I use this clock outdoors?
No, this product is designed specifically for indoor use only.
What type of batteries does it require?
Please check the battery housing inside the clock; standard AA or AAA alkaline batteries are typically required for this type of movement.
Is the finish uniform on all units?
Because the clock is hand-poured and hand-finished, slight variations in the aged brown color may occur, which is normal for this product.
How much weight can the wings hold?
The wing shelves are intended for small, lightweight decorative items; avoid placing heavy objects on them to prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
Clock hands are not moving
Check the battery compartment at the back to ensure the battery is seated correctly and has sufficient charge.
Clock is losing time
Replace the battery with a high-quality alkaline battery and ensure the propeller hands are not obstructed by any items placed on the wing shelves.
Surface dust accumulation
Use a soft, dry duster or compressed air to gently remove dust from the detailed crevices of the aeroplane frame.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To mount the clock, identify a wall space at least 100 cm wide to accommodate the 96 cm wingspan comfortably. Use heavy-duty wall anchors suitable for your wall type (e.g., drywall or masonry) to support the weight of the polyresin material.
Regarding care, clean the surface periodically using a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust from the wings and clock face. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbing brushes, as these may damage the aged brown finish. Ensure the clock is kept in a dry indoor environment to preserve the integrity of the finish and the clock movement mechanism.
