FAQs

Is the thermometer accurate?

The integrated thermometer provides a general indication of the ambient temperature. For highly precise measurements, a dedicated thermometer is recommended. Accuracy can be affected by direct sunlight or extreme environmental conditions.

What type of battery does it use?

The clock requires one AA battery, which is not included with the purchase.

How long does the battery typically last?

With a good quality AA battery, you can expect it to last for 9 to 12 months.

Is this clock truly waterproof?

The clock features a waterproof rear cover and a front rubber ring designed to protect the movement from moisture, making it suitable for daily outdoor use. However, it is not designed for submersion.

How loud is the ticking sound?

This clock uses a quartz sweeping movement designed to be very quiet, with a sound level of approximately 10-15db, which is significantly lower than standard ticking movements.

What is the return policy if I'm not satisfied?

You can contact us within 3 months for a full refund or replacement if you are unhappy with the clock for any reason. There is also a 365-day quality guarantee against defective parts.

Can I hang this clock inside?

Yes, the clock is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Its classic design complements various indoor spaces as well.

Troubleshooting

Clock is not running.

Ensure a new AA battery is inserted with the correct polarity. Check that the battery contacts are clean. Verify the time-setting dial is not stuck.

The clock is losing or gaining time.

Replace the battery, as a weak battery can affect accuracy. Ensure the clock is not near strong magnetic fields. Reset the time if needed.

Condensation appears inside the clock.

Ensure the waterproof rear cover is fully sealed. If persistent, the clock may have been exposed to extreme temperature changes; allow it to acclimatize indoors before re-hanging outside. Check the front rubber ring for damage.

Thermometer reading seems inaccurate.

The thermometer is intended for general indication. For precise readings, use a dedicated thermometer. Ensure the clock is not placed in direct, intense sunlight which can heat the casing and affect both timekeeping and temperature readings.
