We were looking for a simple pedometer with the necessary basic functions (pedometer, km-indication term) without any bells and whistles such as USB connection to PC or similar. This fulfills the Pearl Sports Clock fully. And that is still the same has to a normal clock, is also great. The clock itself is ok, the analog clock face is good and the clock sets itself for this price as a mere clock really what represents. The pedometer functions agree, also the setting is quite simple. With the battery we had previously written as in other reviews no problems. The function of calories consumed, I feel as pure gimmick. But one can easily scroll through keystroke and all is well. Negative: the pedometer standstill turns off automatically after 5 minutes. If you forget it, for. Example, after a walk break then go to hire again, nothing counts. That's when other pedometers better - because while the display switches off, but the function of the step counter remains active. Which is also not good: The digital display of the pedometer is displayed quasi through the normal clock-dial, reading the appropriate pedometer values is a bit tedious depending on the light. Quite impossible to read in the dark or dusk. Therefore, not a perfect score. We reserve the clock anyway, because as already mentioned - the pedometer works pretty accurately.
