Traditional Roman Numeral Quartz Movement / Crystal Tabletop Clock in Windsor Casual

I purchased this mantel clock to replace the Astoria Grand that I recently got here at Wayfair. The Astoria clock face is bright and has gold numbers making it hard to tell the time from just 10 feet away. This Howard Miller has a darker clock face with black Roman numerals and I can tell the time from the kitchen which is nearly 30 feet away. This clock is bigger and is also made of wood (thin) and it should because it's four times the price of the Astoria. Both clocks keep time accurately. Where the Howard Miller clock comes up weak is the chimes. They sound anemic compared to the Astoria. I decided to keep both clocks and placed the Astoria Grand in the sports bar room.

Beautiful and well made clock and the chime sound is so pleasing

Pricey? Yes. Worth it? Yes, I would have paid more. Volume control on the chimes is great. Wake up in the middle of the night and you can hear what time it is. Great workman ship. Sits proudly on my fireplace mantel.

A high quality clock A product made by Howard Miller so unre good reputation at frabrication. And also an attractive option for automatic selection for the night to stop the chime. For me it was essential that option. I'm really proud of this purchase.

I'm very happy with this clock. It's made of wood, simple and perfectly lovely. Especially when you give it a nice beeswax polish!
