Westclox Tourino Chocolate Keywound Reviews
I'm very happy with it. It keeps excellent time - I used the tip of a little nail file to adjust the time setting, no problem. This clock is just what I wanted for a travel clock. The alarm is loud enough to wake me despite my hearing disability. It stays wound for about 3 days.
in order to turn the alarm on (otherwise it will just ring continuously until you shut it off) range, you have to wait until after 11 p.m. Westclox kept the appearance of this alarm clock in the vintage style; however, I found the manufacturing and functionality to be poor. When I attempted to cut the plastic away from the face of the clock without injuring myself, the plastic face became scratched 2) The clock runs fast, but the slot to adust the timing is too small to fit a coin, key, or screwdriver in order to adjust it 3) If it is 10:58 p.m., and you want to set the alarm for anywhere in the 10 a.m. Here are some of the problems: 1) The entire clock was encased in molded plastic when it arrived. I actually own some of the older Westclox keywound alarms that are still keeping time, looking great, and running 50 years later.
(1) Not as pictured. As you can see from the photo, a. Operation: Wound it "pretty tight" 24 hours ago, not running now. As an aside, like the reviewer below me commented, I was sent this small clock in a large cardboard box with no pading whatsoever. it doesn't have the gold trim, b. Reasons:.
It just bounced around in the box all the way here. Maybe explains the scuffs. Please see photo of the item I actually received, which I added to this item (should be at the top of this item page, in additional item photos). Disappointed. it just is more "plastic-y" looking than the one originally pictured. (2) It arrived in a factory-sealed plastic Westclox package, but as you can see from the additional photo I added, the case was pre-scuffed along the top edge and the lower lip, and also on the faces.
the plastic hinges are much more prominent at the top on the one that ships, and c. Haven't investigated further.
Not worth the hassle of returning. The clock was packed in a box that was too big and had no pop corn or anything to keep it secure. Couldn't keep time from the moment I got it.
No problems to date & I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good old-fashioned clock. I also love the hard case which protects while traveling. I tried another version and junked it because it kept erratic time. I have had this clock for several weeks now and it has kept perfect time (IF I DON'T FORGET TO WIND IT - not the clocks fault.:) I love this clock. I decided to purchase a wind-up clock since hurricane season is upon us and hurricane paths now seem to be making beelines for Alabama, Mississippi & Georgia each year.
