Reliable and very quiet!

After reading the reviews I was a little hesitant, but the price was right, just as the appearance. Quick delivered - as always with Amazon - unpacked, drawn film in the already loaded battery lid. After a moment of rapid pointer to 4:00 clock and short delay pointer rushed to get rid of on the precise radio time. What more do you want! No ticking is heard, only "put ears on it" when you hear an extremely quiet click all about 15 sec. Already distance of 5 cm is absolutely nothing more to hear. The lighting is good turn, in short - I forgive 5 Stars! Lovely, too, that the hands glow phosphorus green in the dark when the alarm on the day stood in the light.
