Great Purchase
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
We are really happy with this clock. The colors and design fit well with our mid-century modern home and contemporary furnishings. Perhaps the only critique is that the hands are sometimes hard to distinguish from the background colors of the clock; but we do have it hung on a darker color wall so this probably isn't an issue if hung on a white wall. Overall, though, we love it!

Expensive dust collectors that don't keep time..
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
Have purchased a couple of these Nelson clocks. As wall decorations they're fine, but don't expect them to keep reliable time. Even with fresh batteries, the timing mechanisms do not live up to the design legacy. If I could get a refund, I would, or maybe I just purchased a couple of lemons?

Terrific clock
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Had a faux George Nelson clock that died. Went for the real thing this time. Cannot compare the construction or looks....so much better and the second hand on the brass / black clock is useful. Order arrived significantly ahead of promised date range. Completely happy with this order and Lumens.

wow
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
my sister gave us this clock as a housewarming gift, and we all love it. we have the multi color balls, and it is on a bright orange wall, perfect. my young son taught himself to tell time on the clock within 15 minutes of it being installed. for some reason a numberless clock is easy to tell time on?!?
