Since I bought this clock primarily in the hope of peace, he was therefore immediately. For the actual operation, I can hardly say anything, he has, however, adjusted quickly using the radio signal to the correct time. May well be that I am hypersensitive noise, really loud this is "click" no, but I focus in quieter surroundings involuntarily it and the annoying. Especially at this price I was hoping for complete smoothness, maybe there is something in the analog domain so not. One thing, however there are: Analogue radio alarm clock for about half the price, even the click, but quieter and - unlike this clock here - even have a second hand.
