Bulova Atomic Analog Wall Clock Model C5003 Atomic Time 1, Sets Automatically, Quartz Battery

Exactly what I needed

This is a nice looking large wall clock that we use in a sizable multipurpose room. In terms of quality, it feels pretty cheap and flimsy, especially for the price. Also, the atomic clock function doesn't do a good job of setting the time. We have another, cheaper atomic clock that does an excellent job at this, but not this Bulova. It must have a lower quality radio receiver. Good thing it keeps time just fine and is not *that* tedious to set (read the instructions first). 3.5/5

Love having a clock outside so that I know when it is time to stop working in my yard

I got two different atomic clocks at the same time. The other one set itself perfectly that evening. This one did not. I moved it directly in front of a window and initiated the manual reset. It still took overnight to fix itself. It has since been placed in its original location, but I will have to see if it automatically resets to DST in November.

Should have paid more attention to actual size and wish 24 #’s were more easilyVisibleMy retired Navy husband speaks only 24 -hour time so I need ‘insight’😉

One need not worry about changing a clock, as it automatically adjusts by itself. It is advisable to place a clock in schools, colleges, and offices for convenience and time management.

The frame is weak flexible plastic. It bends very easily and it will not sustain a fall. The clock does not read the WWVB radio signal readily. Setting the time takes multiple tries and is an utter hit or miss. Mostly, it is a miss. Bulova was a great US brand. Like most US brands that have outsourced their products to China and dialed down their quality, it is just a label. This does not feel like a real clock. Just a printed clockface on a cardboard, with a battery box attached. The packaging quality as well as the instructions are what we have come to expect from MADE IN CHINA substandard merchandise. I do not recommend buying this item. Avoid it.

I was looking for an atomic clock that would go well in our Kitchen/Living Room area. Our house has a modern design and this clock fit the bill. Sizing is perfect for the area which happens to sees the most people traffic in our home. It is very easily read and viewable from virtually anywhere in the room. Please note it does not have a sweep hand. This is a great clock for a living room/common room area and/or office lobby!
