La Crosse Technology's 12.8" Atomic Wood Wall Clock is an elegant and highly functional piece. The clock is wrapped in a handsome all wood walnut-stained pine frame. Its face has an off-white textured look and is encased with a glass lens. Black numerals make it attractive and easy to read. Tapered black metal hands display hour, minute, and seconds with atomic precision. Accurate to the second, the clock automatically sets itself via radio signal. It even adjusts automatically to Daylight Savings Time. Function meets form in this unique timepiece. One alkaline battery will operate the clock for two years.
