This is a beautiful clock. I had a little trouble in the beginning with the clock keeping proper time, because the minute hand kept catching on the hour hand. The metal is cheap (which is fine, hello this is a low-priced clock and it's amazing for what you get for the money), so I just bent the hands back into shape and I haven't had any trouble since. There is no mounting equipment either, but I just bought a picture hanger for $3 and it works perfectly well.
