We gave this as a wedding gift to our grandson because we wanted him to have something to always remember us by. They loved it.

When this clock arrived I was most impressed. It was everything that had been advertised - it was beautiful. For more than a year it kept perfect time, but then began needing a replacement battery more and more frequently. I upgraded to a lithium battery, no improvement. The seller was helpful and referred me to the Bulova website, which noted that the warrantee had expired and I would need to pay for a repair. I wondered why a clock that lists at almost $200 is so poorly made. The movement says: "Made in China". Interestingly a "made in China" clock I got at the dollar store keeps beautiful time after 4 years.....and yet this expensive "Bulova" clock stops working before the two year mark. I'm very disappointed with Bulova and will not buy another product from them.

My co-workers and I bought this clock as a present for our boss on his 70th birthday. He's an avid Frank Lloyd Wright enthusiast, and we knew as soon as we saw it that he'd love it. When it arrived, it was FAR more stunning than the photographs can convey. The light blue accents don't show up well in the photos, but they really bring it to life. The back of the clock is glass, so that the wooden pendulum and face seem to float freely. The craftsmanship is exactly what you would expect from Bulova--second-to-none.

I love this clock so much, I'm considering buying one for myself. (And this seller's price was the best we found online.)
