No hum. No second hand clacking through the quiet at 3am. Put a battery in it, set the time, hang it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe last wall clock you owned ended up in a drawer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou know exactly why. It ticked. Not loudly — a cheap clock never ticks loudly. It ticked at the precise volume you only notice once the TV goes off and the house settles, and then it was the only thing you could hear. So it came down off the wall, and you went back to squinting at the microwave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one uses a silent quartz movement with no ticking mechanism at all. The hands move, the time changes, and the room stays exactly as quiet as it was.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the glass matters more than you would think\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClocks in this shape and this price use a clear plastic lens, and plastic is where they give themselves away. It scratches when you dust it. It hazes over after a year or two. And it flexes, so the reflection across the face is never quite flat — the faint warp that makes a wall look cheap without you working out why.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is covered with 2.3 mm float glass. It stays flat, it stays clear, and it wipes properly. Against a plain white dial and a fine printed minute track, that clarity is most of what you are looking at from across a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is ABS rather than metal, which keeps the weight off the wall on something hanging from a single nail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePick the size to fit the wall, not the room\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mistake is buying the size that suits the room and hanging it on a wall that cannot carry it. Three sizes, and the wall decides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9.8 inch is for a tight space with something already in it — beside a doorway, or over a stretch of worktop. The 11.8 inch is the one most people want: big enough to read from a sofa, small enough to sit over a console table without dominating it. The 13.8 inch is for an empty wall with nothing else on it — a stairwell, a landing, or a kitchen you read from the far end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThree finishes, and they are not one clock recolored\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack and white both run black numerals and black hands on a white face — the highest-contrast version, and the one to pick if reading it at a glance is the whole point. The black has a gloss to it and holds its shape against a pale wall. The white almost disappears into one, which is what you want if the clock is meant to be useful rather than noticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold is a different object. Its numerals and hands are gold too, matching the case, so the face reads softer and lower in contrast — bought for how it looks above a sideboard, not for reading from the doorway. All three keep the thin gold second hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt hangs on a single nail or hook through the molded hanging point on the back, high enough on the wall that nobody has to think about it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiameter: 9.8 in (25 cm), 11.8 in (30 cm) or 13.8 in (35 cm), depending on size selected\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCase: ABS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLens: 2.3 mm float glass\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDial: White, with printed Arabic numerals and a full minute track\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMovement: Quartz, silent and non-ticking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHands: Hour, minute and second, with a gold-toned second hand on every finish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinishes: Black, White or Gold\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting: Single hanging point on the back, for a nail or hook\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower: One battery, not included\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStyle: Modern minimalist\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1x Wall Clock\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ridgewell Living","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ 9.8 in (25 cm)","offer_id":52184899289384,"sku":null,"price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 11.8 in (30 cm)","offer_id":52184899322152,"sku":null,"price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ 13.8 in (35 cm)","offer_id":52184899354920,"sku":null,"price":104.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 9.8 in (25 cm)","offer_id":52184899387688,"sku":null,"price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 11.8 in (30 cm)","offer_id":52184899420456,"sku":null,"price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ 13.8 in (35 cm)","offer_id":52184899453224,"sku":null,"price":104.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ 9.8 in (25 cm)","offer_id":52184899485992,"sku":null,"price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ 11.8 in (30 cm)","offer_id":52184899518760,"sku":null,"price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ 13.8 in (35 cm)","offer_id":52184899551528,"sku":null,"price":104.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/9430\/5064\/files\/rw003-02-kitchen-black_d1ecb322-bcdc-40e4-b5c1-2ee333228ebe.png?v=1785742265","url":"https:\/\/ridgewellliving.com\/products\/wall-clock-with-silent-non-ticking-quartz-movement-and-real-glass-lens","provider":"Ridgewell Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
