This review is from: Seiko Mantel Chime Clock with Hand-Rubbed Finish (Watch)

I got the clock this week, it was very well packaged and protected. It was a little bigger than expected, but it worked out fine.

The clock is really very nice looking, the face plate is beautiful and the chimes are deep and rich sounding, but what's even nicer in my opinion is the chime switch, and volume control are easy to access.

It's real wood, but it's so polished it nearly looks like plastic Nearly. Once you open the large door in the back you can see the wood grain and so the hand polishing is outstanding. The numbers are large and easy to see from almost anywhere in the room. So it's a little bigger than I expected, but it's a beautiful clock not overly ornate just a beautiful well functioning clock. The adjustments behind the large easy access hinged door in the back are easy to use with a solid feel, and clock seems very well built and I have to say I'm impressed.

Over all I believe it's the nicest medium/large mantel clock your going to find in this price range.
