While this clock is exactly the style and size I was looking for, there were some challenges. A small nick on the paint on the lower edge and glob of something, paint or weld, near the "12" show a lack of quality control. The hands are mounted VERY close to each other and as the minute hand made its way around the clockface, it would get hung up by the hour hand and also the "glob" at the 12. I had to gently bend the minute hand ends to allow enough room for it to move around without being hindered. If it wouldn't have cost too much to return it, I would have but chose to keep it.
