Comments about La Crosse Technology 12" Aluminum Atomic Wall Clock:
This atomic clock is a perfect color, and it keeps accurate time. The numbers are large enough to see across a room, and the deep aluminum outer case is not plastic. I am very pleased with this clock and am happy that my clock search has ended.

It's my "regulator" clock, i.e., it's the clock by which I set the many others which are part of a collection of mechanical (not battery-powered) clocks.

Comments about La Crosse Technology 12" Aluminum Atomic Wall Clock:
after less than one month the second hand no longer functions
the background surface (white paper face with the numbers on it) has a wrinkle on it which distracts from the appearance
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about La Crosse Technology 12" Aluminum Atomic Wall Clock:
We now have 4 La Crosse Atomic clocks in our office. The first one ordered came in damaged [...] The other three we ordered came in undamaged but the second hand would not work on two of the three so I removed the second hand and they seem to be working fine.

We really like our new and attractive atomic clock. We could hardly wait for the time change in October to see if it would really work . . . it did!
