What was a wall clock?
Wall clocks are not only practical, but also a real eye-catcher and belong in every home. Most models are mounted on the wall using screws, but some also have a stand that allows you to turn your wall clock into a table clock. Extensive special functions make your modern timer a calendar or a weather station at the same time. Wall clocks are available in many shapes, designs and designs – round or angular, made of plastic or metal, with analogueue or digital display. In this way you can find exactly the right time meter for kitchen, office or children's room.
What types of wall clocks are there?
Quartz wall clock
Quartz watches are the most common form of timing. They contain a small quartz crystal, which is located in an electric oscillator. Alternating voltage causes the quartz to vibrate. The uniform vibration frequency serves as a clock for the clockwork and is much more precise than mechanical timepieces. Wall clocks with quartz, however, must be adjusted occasionally.
Wireless wall clock
Analogueue radio clocks are strictly also quartz clocks, because they also have an oscillator with quartz crystal. In addition, this type of wall clock receives a radio signal regularly, whereby the time is automatically set correctly. This means that you usually never have to adjust the radio wall clocks manually. The time change is also carried out automatically.
Practical advice
Radio clocks synchronize with a radio signal at regular intervals. To receive this well, it is best to install the wall clock close to the window. Building walls in which reinforced concrete or metal parts have been installed can interfere with the signal or even block it.

Wall clockwith temperature
DisplayA model with temperature and humidity display saves the weather forecast and helps with the selection of clothes as well as day planning. Clocks with an outdoor sensor can also measure the outdoor temperature and transmit it to your wall clock.
Silent wall clocks without annoying ticking
The even ticking of a clock is perceived by many people as disturbing in the long run. But you don't necessarily have to access a digital clock to avoid these disturbing noises: Silent clocks have a particularly quiet clockwork, also called a creeping clockwork. With such a wall clock, you have your peace and quiet in working or class rooms as well as in bedrooms and still have a beautiful dial in front of you.
FAQs: The most common questions about wall clocks
How can ich set my wall clock correctly?
With quartz watches, you have to set the time manually, radio clocks obtain their time by means of a radio signal. The exact requirements depend on the model, the operating instructions of the wall clock provide information on this.
Can a radio-controlled clock also be set manually?
In some areas or buildings, your watch may not receive the radio signal correctly, indicating an incorrect time. With most radio clocks, however, you can synchronize manually by pressing a button or even switch it off temporarily. Then you can set the timer as a normal quartz clock.
What is the problem if my wall clock goes wrong?
No matter whether quartz or radio clock, first of all you should check whether the batteries have to be replaced. If your wall clock is still not precise, it may be in its position or even in the weather: Metal objects, electronic devices - especially those with own radio control - as well as thunderstorms can impair the signal. If your watch is still constantly being investigated, there may be a defect in the clockwork or the electronics.
Conclusion: How to buy the suitable wall clock
Wall clocks are available in a wide range, especially for analogueue clocks with dial. When choosing your new timepiece, you can therefore decide first and foremost according to your personal taste. However, bathroom or garden clocks should be protected against moisture or weather. Radio clocks are much more precise and comfortable than quartz clocks, provided that the signal is not disturbed. If you don't want to hear a constant ticking, you should grab a creeping clockwork or a digital clock. Additional functions such as weather data or calendar make your wall clock versatile and a valuable aid in everyday life.
