Does the clock require a specific battery type?

Please refer to the battery compartment on the back of the clock mechanism; standard alkaline batteries are typically required.

Can I display this in a bathroom?

It is not recommended, as humidity and temperature fluctuations in a bathroom can damage the delicate clockwork and affect the gold finish.

How do I ensure the clock remains stable?

The clock is designed with a balanced base; ensure it is placed on a flat, non-slip surface away from edges.

Is the gold plating real?

Is the clock design printed or engraved?

Troubleshooting

Check the battery installation and ensure the battery is fresh; verify that the hands are not obstructed by the glass casing.

Fingerprints or smudges on the crystal

Use a dry, soft microfiber cloth to gently buff the surface; avoid water or cleaning solutions.
