SEIKO Nori Bedroom Alarm Clock, Black

Overall, very satisfied with this product. It has the quiet sweep hand technology and keeps good time. The Glow on the hands and numbers lasts for hours and hours, allowing the time to be visible almost the entire night, but not too bright that It will bother you while you sleep. After having it for a few months, there was an incident where it started making an odd noise, almost like ticking of the seconds hand, which wasn't supposed to happen, but it went away after a few hours. I do not use the alarm function, but I have read that it is located on the back of the clock and difficult to reach. Also, the alarm is supposedly very loud, but read the other reviews for a better analysis on the alarm. As a standard clock, it works wonders. Overall, for the price and the style, I would recommend this product.

This is a basic, no frills alarm clock. It's quiet, the numbers have a soft glow at night, the light & snooze works & the alarm has woken me on time in the few weeks I've owned it. You do have to pick up the clock to shut off the alarm in the back and set it at night with the switch on the back. Set the time clockwise, set the alarm COUNTER clockwise like the instructions say. I think a few people had a problem with that. It is loud for my needs, you can hear it in the next room over, unless your room is huge maybe. I plan on painting the sides to match my room when I redecorate, since I couldn't find a "pretty" and reasonably priced clock that had these functions. A good buy.

Pretty decent clock. Like just about every other "silent" analog alarm clock that I've come across, it isn't 100% silent. But it is silent enough as long as you don't place it within 1 ft of your ear. The alarm is a bell sound. The one thing that peeves me off about this clock is that I can't really open it up to oil the gears inside to make it quieter. There is an alarm knob on the back which seems to be impossible to take off without breaking something. Looks like some sort of push split system that the back knob is put on, which you need some sort of special tool to push together. Tried tweezers, but I don't have tweezers that are that thin and long enough... Update: I managed to get the back knob off, by using a pair of pliers and an allen wrench. You push down the knob of the split pin with the allen wrench that is just barely smaller than the size of the hole, and then push up on the other side with a pair of pliers. After you get the back knob off, then you can take the back cover off. I will say that if you want to oil the gears, then you are in for one heck of a job. This clock has 2 to 3 times as many gears as I've seen on other clocks, so is not for the faint of heart. And those 2 sets of gears are separated by a circuit board. The upper gears I couldn't totally separate from the top part and the circuit board.. so that the only way to get at the gears was with a set of long tweezers. Anyway, I did manage to quiet down the bell a little bit by putting a piece of wood inside the bell area, and also putting duct tape on the contact point. I'm not sure whether or not oiling the main clock gear actually quieted anything or not. Maybe it did by a little bit. Still seems a little noisier than another clock that I have that runs on AA batteries. Probably because this thing has so many gears.

I have to say, this has been one of my better purchases for my mom! She needed a replacement travel size clock for next to her bed. The requirements were simple. She wanted small, easy to read and easy to use. This Seiko clock checked all the boxes! I had it shipped to my mom who was able to easily get it up and running by herself and with ease. SHE LOVES IT!! I am so happy to make her happy! Trust me, if she didn't like it 100%, she would have had me send it back! Pictures to follow!

I’m writing this after the first night of use. Alarm was loud enough to actually wake me up, and was simple to use. I will report back here if I have further issues. (Written Feb/10/22). If no edits after this, assume it is working! Seems to be of quality! Edit 3/2025: I’ve now had this clock longer than I’ve kept anything at this point. I get tired of things pretty easily. It’s stayed with me through two moves now, and continues to work. I thought it might have started to give out about a week ago, due to it not keeping time, but I changed the battery and it’s working perfectly fine. I’ve changed the batteries 4 times since I’ve gotten it.

Nice styling and worked great for a while. It eventually started doing two things that are total deal breakers: 1) running slow - changing the battery helped for a while, but not for long; 2) while there is no ticking, eventually a quiet grinding noise developed, loud enough to be bothersome for someone who had hoped for silence. Unfortunately I fooled around with it long enough that it was no longer returnable. The other thing I wasn't fond of is the bell alarm without ascending volume, which made it unusable for the bedroom. (should have paid closer attention to the description) I'd decided to move it to another room but when it stopped keeping accurate time that was the end.

This product is very cheaply made. I doubt it's a Seiko product. It works well enough to show the time due to it's clear and big face. However, the time is usually 15 or more behind, so frequent re-setting is required (yes, the battery is fresh). Now, the alarm feature was discontinued in my household after 2 or 3 uses. It is the epitome of an unpleasant awakening. The alarm is extremely shrill (for someone with regular hearing). Funny enough, even when the alarm is turned off, the clock makes a loud clicking noise at the indicated alarm time. So, with very good hearing, that alone may suffice to wake someone up. Needless to say, it can't be turned off. Not a worthwhile product.

I got this mainly for what I’d hoped would be ease of reading it in the dark. It delivers in spades. The lume on the hands and indices is better than my nice watches, and is readable until the morning. Quartz movement is predictably accurate. A little tough to get a precise alarm time, but I don’t use the alarm so that’s a non-factor for me. Battery life is going on six months. Plastic case as described but looks handsome. Very happy with this purchase.

I bought this alarm clock several years ago, my daughter loved it so much she took it and have been using it to wake her up in the morning. I finally bought a second on last week, but was sent the wrong model in error ( image item on left). I really love the subtle blue glow on the numbers and hands. Pressing the snooze button and a small amber LED lights up in the 2 o'clock position. Setting the time, just pull out the knob in the back and adjust. Set wake up time, just make sure the knob is pushed in to set, it's that easy. Sweeping seconds hand is silent, an excellent Seiko alarm clock.

Acabo de comprar este reloj y me fascino el look retro que tiene. La pieza que me llego no es totalmente silenciosa, en total silencio se puede apreciar el sonido del mecanismo, sin embargo, al ser de movimiento continuo no se va a escuchar el clasico tic tac de los relojes tradicionales. El material es de plastico y es muy ligero, me da miedo de que facilmente se pueda caer del buro, utiliza una pila tamaño C y supuestamente dura mas de un año. La alarma es de campana y suena muy fuerte. Las manecillas y numeros tienen luminosidad en la oscuridad pero realmente no se aprecian mucho, tambien cuenta con una luz para ver la hora durante la noche. Aunque es marca seiko, el reloj es "Made In China", solo espero que por el precio tenga materiales de calidad y dure por muchos años.

basic, battery-operated, slightly glow-in-the-dark so i can check the time at night, super silent. perfect.

Der Wecker macht einen guten Eindruck, eben Seiko Qualität. Allerdings ist die im Lieferumfang beigefügte Batterie in einem leeren Zustand. Ich dachte erst der Wecker wäre defekt, aber zum Glück hatte ich eine passende Batterie zur Hand und der Wecker funktionierte danach einwandfrei.

Realmente o Relógio Despertador é bom, porém a pilha não é encontrada em nosso país, não é média nem grande, é um tamanho que só deve ter no mercado chinês, nesse caso temos de nos precaver e comprar as pilhas com antecedência da China. O som é bem irritante, mas já sabia como era, os gatos aqui de casa se assustam e se escondem, não se acostumam. Devido a isso acabei optando e comprando um digital com som menos barulhento.
