To watch function, there is no criticism - An accurate clock halt. Aaaber: The LCD panel was probably a remnant and is no longer state of the art. When it looks exactly vertical, it's nice contrast, but if you move just a little to the left, right, up or down, the contrast quickly so weak that it hardly what can be read. The difference between the switched-on segments, and those which are made of, is very low. The clock hangs in the kitchen at a height where you can easily read while standing. While having breakfast while sitting you can barely read the time.
