FAQs
Is the gear mechanism silent?
The gear movement is designed for visual appeal. While it is generally quiet, you may notice the faint sound of the mechanism in a perfectly silent room.
Does the clock come with mounting hardware?
Standard mounting hardware is often included, but it is recommended to use hardware appropriate for your specific wall type to ensure a secure fit.
What type of battery does it require?
The clock operates on a single standard AA battery.
Is this suitable for outdoor use?
No, this clock is intended for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements can damage the wood and cause the metal to rust.
Can the gears be stopped while the clock keeps time?
The gear movement is integrated with the clock's operation; they are designed to move simultaneously.
How heavy is the clock?
Due to its wooden and metal construction, it has a substantial weight; please ensure your wall mounting point is rated for medium-to-heavy wall decor.
Troubleshooting
Gears are not rotating smoothly
Check if the AA battery is fresh. Ensure no dust or debris is obstructing the gear teeth.
Clock is losing time
Replace the AA battery with a high-quality alkaline version to ensure steady power delivery.
Clock seems loose on the wall
Verify the wall anchor is appropriate for your wall type (drywall vs brick) and that the mounting hardware is fully tightened.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: Given the size and construction, ensure you use a heavy-duty wall hook or screw anchored securely into a wall stud or appropriate masonry anchor.
Battery Setup: Insert one fresh AA battery into the movement mechanism located on the rear of the clock.
Placement: Avoid areas with high humidity or extreme temperature fluctuations, such as directly above a radiator or in a damp bathroom, to protect the wooden frame and metal gears.
Cleaning: Gently dust the clock using a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid using water or household chemicals as these may strip the hand-applied antique finish.
