As it is radio-controlled, it obviously keeps perfect time. However, while the minute and hour increments are very clear as they are black on white, the fingers, being silver coloured, are not. Reading the time therefore takes a second or two. It would be helpful if the fingers were darker.

Quality is great - it looks more expensive than it is.

Once it has set itself to the correct time, it seems to stay correct. I can't wait for the clocks to change to GMT as it will be the only clock in the house that will be correct.

Only criticism is that it would be a bit easier to read the time if the hands were black instead of silver.

radio clock 26 Jun 2010
Elegant, uncluttered design. If you need accurate time, this is it. Did you know that the time signal - the pips - on the radio varies, depending on whether you listen to FM or Digital? My bedside FM radio, which is tuned to Radio 4, starts the pips two, even three seconds before my digital radio in the living room, which is also tuned to Radio 4. It makes me wonder why the BBC bothers with the time signal on its digital channels when they are so behind the time.
