SEIKOSussex Bedroom Alarm Clock, Silver

This little, brass Seiko alarm clock looks JUST like the image. And in person, it looks larger than the measurements given, so that's good, as I was concerned it would be too small. It's actually perfect sitting on a stand next to my bed. I love the button on top that you can press to see time in the dark (it lights up while you hold down the button, and turns off when you release.) And it couldn't be simpler to set up - more intuitive than the actual instructions :-) The alarm function works great - it isn't too loud, but loud enough to wake you up!BUT, I will say, I wish Seiko would consider making this same clock but in all metal, instead of all plastic! It would give some heft to the clock - as it is, when I reach out to grab in middle of the night to view time, I feel like I am lifting air, lol.I was spoiled about 37 years ago, buying a beautiful brass alarm clock by Seiko - MADE IN JAPAN. It was gorgeous, HEAVY, and solid brass (which they coated so you didn't have to polish the brass.) It was maybe two-three inches taller that this plastic clock (but different shape).That brass alarm clock was made so well! I finally threw it away last year, only because I dropped it often enough over these many decades (unfortunately), and finally about 5-years ago, the front cover developed a nasty crack when dropped by a TSA agent at the airport! (I had wrapped in bubble wrap, but as she unwrapped, it slipped and dropped!) I actually thought it was a crystal front all these years, but upon inspection, I think it was just a very well made acrylic. The coating on the brass portion also started spotting as well the past several years.That said, I got a solid 32 years out of it, before the ugly spotting began on the coating and the front cracked from TSA (and my) carelessness. And yet, that mighty little metal clock STILL worked. It was the esthetics that now caused me to finally throw it away, but with fresh batteries it still worked (although the sound of the alarm finally faded, probably from dropping so much.) It was a "mighty" clock, though :-)I probably paid $100.00 for that Seiko alarm clock (37-years ago), so that would be a lot more in today's dollars. In fact, it would be $275.00 today (smile, I googled.) But I'd gladly pay a few hundred for a solid brass keeper clock. I hope Seiko considers doing so, for those of us willing to pay more for a luxury product. A cheap plastic clock is not the same - but thankfully it's designed well and cute enough for the price (thus my 5-stars, but 1-star off the record that it isn't solid brass.)

At first it didn't seem to work, but that was only because I needed to remove the clear wrapper from the battery, Works great and a nice compact size for my nightstand!

This is definitely a nice clock for the money and is extremely quiet with its sweep second hand. It's a Seiko movement after all. Made in China, but what isn't these days? Unlike most other clocks in this size, its functions work well and are intuitive without reading the instructions. The top button even acts as a 5 min snooze for up to 20 mins. The alarm is mono-toned but adequate for light sleepers, but I didn't purchase it for that. It makes a nice nick-knack bathroom clock with its gold accents and brings some ambiance to just about any room. It even glows in the dark which I found a remarkable surprise if left in the sun all day. The single AA battery goes in smoothly and it's easy to remove. 4 out 5 stars because the battery can dislodge if handled alot causing the clock to stop. It's easily solved by putting a small amount of foam behind the battery cover.

It's truly high quality, it's a Seiko after all! My friend keeps one in the bathroom and one in bedroom and absolutely loves it! Highly recommend. I also gifted this to my Brother, who was extremely pleased. Numbers are read very easily from a distance.

I'm probably not the only one having a hell of a time finding a nice alarm clock.Something has happened with the product standards around the world I'd say.This clock looks quite nice in the photo-- almost as if it was made of metal-- but upon opening the package, I was shocked at how completely cheap it is.I really suspect that this is not a Seiko product at all, maybe, unless Seiko has completely sold out.It's cheap lightweight plastic, with a silly set of feet to balance it. The graphics are nice, and save it from being terrible.It's worked fine, though.I'll keep scouring the world for a genuine solid metal alarm clock, if such a thing even exists any more. Wish me luck.

This clock is easy to see, the button on top lights up the face so you can see at night. It has kept perfect time in the months I have been using it. It makes no sound what so ever. The alarm is adequate to hear without being a fire alarm. Simple basic and easy to use. No fancy digital or extras to go wrong.

I need a small, quiet, easy to see in the dark bedroom clock. This one misses on all but “small”.It makes soft “grinding” noises. It’s impossible to see the time at night without pressing the snooze button to light up the face. Definitely over priced, given its short-comings.

This is nice and seems to work very well. Seiko is a good company.

Produto de qualidade e muito bonito

Came sooner than expected; was unable to source this style of clock locally at a decent price.

Calidad y precio muy acordes al producto.

Super silencioso, perfeito para a mesa de cabeceira. Os números fluorescentes são inúteis, no escuro só se vê um anel luminoso fraco, borrado, que talvez incomode algumas pessoas. A luz funciona muito bem. Podiam simplesmente remover a pintura fluorescente. Tirando isso, nota 10.

After a month it still keeps the time. With the amount of crap out there it’s like a miracle when you find a clock that is not too fast or slow or stops working all together.
