About this product
This alarm clock wakes you up without the constant ticking keeping you awake beforehand. The non-ticking sweep seconds hand means you get a proper night's sleep, then the beep alarm gets you up when it's time. The retro shaped case with a glass lens and easy-to-read dial keeps things simple and stylish, so it'll fit in on your bedside table without clashing with what you've already got. It's got a snooze function for those mornings when you need an extra few minutes, plus a light so you can check the time in the dark.
The analogue display is straightforward to read at a glance, and the quartz movement keeps accurate time day in, day out. It runs on a single AA battery, which isn't included, so you'll need to grab one before you set it up. The alarm's easy to set and the snooze gives you that bit of extra breathing room when the morning comes around too quickly. It's backed by a two-year guarantee from the manufacturer, so you're covered if anything goes wrong.

Customers Say
Retro-style alarm clock praised for silent operation, clear numerals, easy-to-use backlight, and gentle alarm. Loved for its design, size, and value, though some find ticking audible and alarm setting tricky.

Lovely little clock
Lovely retro alarm clock. Lovely sage green colour. Clear numerals. Light switch at back which helps to see clockface at night. Silent so no ticking. Alarm soft and gentle. Good value for the money.

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.
