This gold, vintage-styled telephone clock has been a fun and classy decor piece receiving multiple compliments. The gold finish is a slightly different hue in person compared to the photos; however, I still find the appearance to be beautiful and well-made. It is surprisingly light in weight, yet sturdy. It is one of the quietest clocks I have ever experienced as I had to watch the time to ensure it was working because there were no ticking sounds. I have compared the set running time to my phone multiple times, and there have been no issues with it getting behind or ahead. It runs nicely on one AA battery. I wish there was a back piece to hold in the battery, but despite this, the battery has remained in place. Overall, it is a fancy, yet functional decor item that spices up any room.
