Nice design, deep black, elegant white-gold-gray figures and beautiful shiny thin housing. All figures are in different lighting conditions very well lesen.Deutsche designations and 24 hrs. Preset. Housing is about 3cm thick (not to read 8.5 cm as in the product description, Even the packaging has only 4.5cm) Batteries and pure short wait for signal, everything ready. Tip for people who have trouble with those batteries: There are insert two AA batteries side by side. On one side it has a little plastic holder that holds the battery. "You just have to pull the nipple by the tongue". Insert battery DH on that side that does not have these small tab and then rüberschieben. Technology that inspires! The only slight drawback of this clock: I do not checke immediately from the description how to put the alarm clock. Is perhaps the country of origin of the clock and without proper consideration manual. Made for TFA Germany in PRC (lt. Packaging specification) lt could. Various information on the internet "People's Republic of China" to be. (Otherwise would be probably the only "German" electronic device in my household). So after a short life, I am very pleased with the unit.
