Bought this to replace the digital clock we had in the kitchen. It’s an attractive design, easy to see from a distance and I love that it’s bang-on accurate and stays that way. Accuracy is a thing for me and this meets the requirements. Well recommended and available at a decent price. Also, my second LaCrosse product, so far I’m very impressed by them.

Set it once and forget it..

I have several of these clocks in my home and purchased this one for use in second home. I love that they always show the correct time, even when we spring forward or fall back (daylight savings time). I wish the design was a little more stylish, but the simple look works well in any room. Highly recommend.

So far so good. I was absolutely convinced it would not work properly here. I have an ancient LaCrosse LCD weather station thing (that I love and still works) with atomic time that only syncs about 1/3 of the year. I also have an expensive Casio Wave Ceptor atomic watch that, similarly, can’t sync unless I have it in a few certainly places in the house. This clock is not one of those places- an inside bathroom with no windows and on an interior, insulated wall. I am on the mid east coast on the water, and according to all the maps, is one of the worst places for Bolder Co signal to reach (why is it 2013 and there are still no other options for syncing clocks? FM radio, cell signals, TV signals… it is silly there is nothing available that is MUCH stronger and works anywhere inside any kind of building).
But this clock? I put in the battery and hung it on the wall at about 8pm, it swept around and stopped. When I went back in the room at 11:30pm, it was magically synced and ticking away and has been for a few weeks now. It is easy to use, easy to read, and doesn’t tick loudly. If it gives me several years of service like this, I will be very happy. Can’t beat the price. I do wish they had some more designs in their lineup. If it keeps working well, I am probably going to buy some additional units.
It is interesting that the minute hand moves in 10 second increments. Most clocks I have seen either move the minute hand in one second or 15 second increments. Probably doesn’t matter, just thought I would share that unusual tidbit.
One thing- it doesn’t sit flush against the wall as you might think it does from the stock photo, since the clock “brain” and battery box is in the back.

Just a plain, elegant wall clock. Works great, takes batteries.

When we first got the clock it worked perfectly. I manually set the time just a minute off to see what it would do. By the next morning it had self adjusted to the correct time.
However when the time changed for DST it wouldn’t correct itself. So I’ve twice manually changed it only to have it reset itself back to standard time. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?
Update: After looking at the rear again in a lighted area, the clock is in a relatively dark area, I see a DST switch not mentioned in the manual. I slide the switch on and of course it moves a hour ahead.
I’ve never seen a DST switch before on an Atomic clock as they’ve usually just adjusted themselves but it works for this one.
So I have to say this clock works well and as expected.

This is my first experience with atomic clocks. Should have gotten this a long time ago. Keeps correct
time, it’s ticking is barely noticeable and it adjusts itself with the cotton picking time change twice a year. Just be patient when first getting the clock to catch the signal from Colorado. I think it picks up the signal at midnight but after that I haven’t had any issues with it.

I am sold on atomic clocks because with DST, you don’t have to worry about whether you need to “fall forward, or spring back”, Without the atomic feature, no matter how careful I am in resetting the time, my clocks are consistently off by a few minutes. The first time you set up the atomic clock, there may be a delay in receiving the signal, but, in my experience, it eventually happens. Of course, the battery will need to be replaced at some future time. With cathedral ceilings, this becomes an issue for me, no matter what kind of clock I have on the wall.

Nice looking clock but does not auto set for countries outside of the US. As such a bit pointless for UK market.
D W S Evans –
Bought this from amazon uk and it does not work in the uk! Should not have been on the the uk site. Other than that you can set it manually and it was on sale and looks great in the spot I bought it for so we are keeping it.

I have a love/hate relationship with these atomic clocks from LA CROSSE. I must have gone through a dozen of them.
The good:
They keep accurate time. You cannot get more accurate than a radio controlled clock. The newer model is called ATOMIC CLOCK, the older model is called RADIO CONTROLLED (see picture). I am a day-trader and I need the accuracy.
The bad:
1. LA CROSSE clocks tick loud enough to hear. I don’t like audible clocks. BRAUN clocks don’t tick and they are accurate. I love them, but they have their own shortcomings (I don’t know if I have a review for them on Amazon.)
2. An ordinary battery lasts only about 6 months. The manual says that Alkaline batteries last for two years. I must try it–I don’t stock alkaline batteries but it might be worth the extra cost if it lasts 4 times as long.
The Ugly:
Pay attention. I am writing this for your benefit. If you think you will pop in a cell and have the clock do the rest, you have another think coming. You have to follow a ritual (for several days sometimes) to get them to work.
1. Start with a brand-new alkaline battery. It’s worth the cost.
2. Plug in the battery. The clock will come alive–one or both hands will start moving. Usually they will move and stop at the 12 o’clock position (or sometimes the 4 o’clock position.) There it will wait till it can capture a radio signal from Radio Station WWVB, in Fort Collins, CO. My signal is notoriously feeble and I have to place the clock upstairs till it catches the signal, sometimes a couple of nights later.
The old clocks would stay at the 12 o’clock position until it captured the radio signal (as shown in the picture). But that is unsettling. So, the company redesigned the capture ritual in the newer clocks. If it cannot capture the signal in the first ten minutes, it will start moving WITH THE WRONG TIME. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RESET THE CLOCK TO THE CORRECT TIME. Give it time, sometimes as long as 5 nights. Both situations are shown in the picture.
3. Once the clock latches onto the signal, it will not let go. You can now place it anywhere in the house. But wait! There is a caveat. The clock will adjust the time to the time-zone you will set by pushing one of four buttons PT/MT/CT/ET on the back of the clock. You push the time-zone button as soon as you insert the battery. Otherwise, you get the time from another time zone. You then have to push the right time-zone button. No big deal, but it’s a nuisance. The newer clocks have a slider instead of push buttons and the slider stays in place. I like that. The old clocks had Daylight Savings Time programmed in by default, but the newer ones have a mechanical slider switch to set the DST.
When daylight savings occurs, the clock will automatically reset itself. BUT, the next day or so, it will go berserk till it can recapture the revised signal. The NIST signal from Colorado is notoriously weak. There is nothing you or the company can do about it. It is recommended that you stay 6 feet away from electrical equipment (cordless phones, routers, TVs, microwaves, baby monitors, etc.) In my experience, once the clock latches onto a signal, it will not let go. So, stay away from noise sources when it is in capture mode. Then you can place it (almost) anywhere you like.
Why do I put up with the startup ritual of atomic clocks? Because I’m a day-trader and I need the accuracy. Also, from now on I will stock high-powered alkaline batteries and see it it makes a difference. If you live in a radio hole, you can push the SET button, and use the clock as a regular clock. But the protocol for setting it is not straight-forward and I have never had to use it.
eusrIMHO –
It has a nice clean look and is completely soundless. I would buy again.

Este reloj tiene conexión automática con el reloj atómico de Colorado; en mi caso no logré que se conectara automáticamente con el mismo, por lo que lo tuve que sincronizar manualmente y hasta la fecha casi un mes, esta muy exacto y sin problema alguno. En teoría una vez sincronizada la maquinaria, solo se ajusta; tienes que seleccionar tu zona del tiempo y trae un interruptor para activar-desactivar el horario de verano donde en algunos países no se aplica, por ejemplo la Ciudad de México.
