FAQs

What type of battery does the clock use?

The clock typically uses a standard AA battery. Please check the product's specific requirements or manual for exact specifications. Battery is not included.

How do I set the perpetual calendar?

The perpetual calendar uses rotating wooden blocks for the day, month, and year. You manually turn these blocks to the correct setting.

Does the calendar automatically update?

The calendar is a perpetual design, meaning it accounts for varying month lengths and leap years once set correctly. However, you must manually rotate the wooden blocks each day to update the date.

What are the dimensions of the desk clock?

Please refer to the product's specific product page or packaging for detailed dimensions. (Note: Dimensions not provided in the product information.)

Is this product suitable for an outdoor environment?

No, this desk clock and calendar is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures can damage the materials.

How often should I clean the brass parts?

The frequency of cleaning depends on your environment and preference. For optimal shine, check the brass components monthly and polish as needed.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Warranty information is typically provided by the manufacturer or retailer. Please consult your purchase details or the Nauticalia Ltd. website for warranty specifics. (Note: Warranty details not provided in the product information.)

Troubleshooting

Clock is not keeping accurate time.

Ensure a fresh battery is correctly installed. If the issue persists, the quartz mechanism may need servicing.

Date blocks are difficult to turn.

Gently try to turn the blocks. If they are stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing movement. Avoid forcing them.

Brass components are tarnished.

Use a dedicated brass polish with a soft cloth to restore the shine. Refer to the polish instructions for best results.

Wooden parts appear dry.

Apply a small amount of wood polish or a very lightly oiled cloth to the wooden surfaces to restore moisture and sheen. Wipe off any excess.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Insert a suitable battery (e.g., AA, not included) into the quartz clock mechanism following the polarity markings.
Set the current time by gently turning the adjustment knob on the back of the clock.
Manually rotate the wooden blocks to set the correct current day, month, and year.

Compatibility:

Care:

For the wooden components, use a soft, dry cloth for dusting. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture.
For the brass accents, use a brass polish to maintain shine. Follow the polish manufacturer's instructions. Test polish on an inconspicuous area first.
Clean the clock face and calendar window with a slightly damp, soft cloth if necessary. Ensure the product is dry afterward.
Periodically check and replace the battery for the quartz clock mechanism as needed.
