The clock was delivered last July 19th.  I had put it outside for the warm months and brought it in for the Fall and Winter and recently put it back outside.  It stopped working as the minute hand is now loose.  There is no cover for the back to cover the battery compartment for being outside.  The quality for the price is a little steep.  I would not recommend this product even though it looked great for the short amount of time I was able to use it.
