The clock is vintage style, is working perfectly for last 2 months. Finish and operations including the vintage bell alarm is perfect. The item arrived on time and was well packed. However, since this is not from any significant brand, the price is quite steep. The MRP shown is very high and then offered a heavy discount to attract customers. But even the discounted price is quite high. Others and similar ones shouldn't cost beyond 1.5 to 2K INR max to be authentic MRP. Nevertheless, those who like vintage style and a well performing alarm clock, can go for this. Should last long as so far in 2 months hasn't shown any problems like slowing down, alarm missing, etc. However as with battery powered clocks, always remember never to use the long-lasting high-powered batteries alkaline batteries like Duracell or high-power rechargeable batteries because they somehow affect the clock machines. May be because of Alkaline batteries use potassium hydroxide as the electrolyte, while zinc-carbon batteries use zinc chloride or ammonium chloride. Am not clear with this. So hence has been using ordinary batteries of Everyready or Nippo, etc as advised to me by a clock shop long back when a similar vintage style clock got damaged and went out of service because of using Duracell batteries.
