Have this clock ordered because I was looking for an inexpensive variant with thermometer and hygrometer. The clock is very easy and is certainly not fall from 3 meters high, but how often does that already. However, despite the simple design it looks elegant and serves its purpose perfectly. I also made reference measurements with a digital hygrometer / thermometer and can detect here not a big difference. After a little more than 6 months in operation, I have now but already second pair batteries in use. But here I may have caught also an "old" couple. The price / performance ratio is very good.
