This elegant metal desk and wall clock from Sharp is the perfect gift for home or office. Silent Sweep Hands - No Ticking! The silent sweep hands move smoothly without the ticking sound typical of traditional analog clocks. This feature provides a quieter sleeping environment, ideal for light sleepers or those sensitive to noise. It enhances focus in work and study spaces too, eliminating distractions while maintaining the classic charm of an analog display. Alarm Status Indicator on Dial - With a quick glance of the clock, rest at ease knowing your alarm is on with the alarm status indicator. The indicator is incorporated into the clock's dial at the “3” position. Real Wood Base for Tabletop Display - The metal clock and wood base are two separate pieces. One can hang the clock in a cubicle or wall easily. Or rest it in the real wood platform tabletop style. If using the included genuine wood stand, an optional to use metal back cover is provided. If the user wants a lot of access to changing the alarm times, the back cover can be stored for future use. The clock will sit securely in the wood base with or without the back cover. Glow In the Dark Hands – Easily see the clock at night with the glow in the dark hands and easy to read dial. Battery Operated – Operates with 1 x AA Batteries, Not Included
