Blue Face Wall Clock with Pale Wood Frame and Silent Sweep, 9.8 Inch

A round wall clock with a navy blue face, crisp white numbers and a pale wood frame, so the wall picks up a little color and you can still read the time from across the room. The movement is a silent sweep, which means the second hand glides round and the room stays quiet.

No ticking. No stark white dial. No plastic rim.

Navy blue where most clocks are white

Most wall clocks come in white or black, and after a few weeks they disappear into the paint. This one has a deep navy dial with a fine woven texture you notice up close, the kind of blue that sits easily beside oak, gray, cream and green, and it gives a plain stretch of wall something to look at without shouting about it.

The twelve white numbers are wide and squared off, with a white mark at every minute and a longer bar at each five. Slim hour and minute hands in a pale gold tone sit over them, and a thin second hand in the same shade sweeps past. A glass lens covers the whole dial.

A second hand you can see but never hear

A second hand is useful right up until you can hear it. Most cheap clocks step it forward once a second, and in a quiet bedroom or a study that small click becomes the loudest thing in the room.

This one runs on a quartz sweep movement instead, so the second hand moves in one smooth, continuous glide with no tick at all. You keep the moving hand for timing a call or a short break, and there is nothing to listen to once the lights go off.

A pale wood frame, 9.8 inches across

The housing is wood in a light natural tone, rounded over at the front and deep at the sides, so the clock reads as a proper round object on the wall rather than a flat disc. A narrow gray ring sits between the frame and the dial, and the wood ties the face back to oak shelves, pale floors and linen.

At 9.8 inches across, it suits a smaller stretch of wall: above a desk, beside a doorway, over a kitchen counter or next to the bed. It runs on one AA battery, sold separately.

Hang it up, and the room gains a little blue and loses nothing to noise.
