I love the size and the simplicity of this clock.  It was packaged extremely well.  However, before I hung it on the wall, I noticed that the minute hand has swung loose and is just dangling.  Probably just needs to be tightened but I dont feel like it will be the most reliable time-keeping device because of the loose minute hand.  I truly have it for more decorative purposes but I was disappointed that this occurred.  It was laying flat on my desk and had been keeping good time laying horizontal prior to me lifting it to hang.
