Nice clock if you just need the time.
The clock is nice looking and a good size but trying to set the alarm is tricky as haven’t once got it right. The controls all too close together along with alarm on and off. You can accidentally alter the hands turning the alarm on and off but getting the alarm set is also difficult in the first place as no minute marks

Didn't work
I bought this, put a battery in and the clock just didn't work - the light came on so it wasn't the battery. I took it back and got a replacement, but that was the same, so I got a refund.

Ticking sound quite loud
Unfortunately this clock isn't a silent clock as described, the ticking sound is quite loud during the night so I've had to send it back for a refund.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for your query about the Acctim Hilda Retro Shaped Alarm Clock - Green.
No, it's not possible to set the alarm to an AM or PM time. It'll go off at the time the alarm hand is set to on the face, i.e. at that same time in the morning and then in the evening.
The back of the clock allows the option to turn the alarm on or off. What you'd do is to turn it off when you've woken up and then, before bed, switch it back on again.
Thanks for using Q&A.
