Classic Analogue Alarm Clock with Snooze and Light, Quiet Quartz Movement, Crescendo Beep Alarm in Black and Silver, model BC12SB.

Nice little alarm clock. I always like to have a battery one in case there is an overnight power failure. I like the way the volume of the alarm builds in a crescendo so it does not give you a fright. I find the hour and minute hands quite similar in length so you have to look carefully at times. The alarm hand is dark green and in low light can be difficult to see.

Great for travelling although a bit on the small side for a bedside. Looks nice though

I have a drawer full of discarded alarm clocks which didn't meet requirement for one reason or another. Either the back light was so poor it didn't light the dial, or the alarm was too loud, the latest to hit the back of the drawer was the alarm off button, so tiny I could never find it to turn off the incessant noise, by the time I had I was in such a bad mood. Not a great start to the day. This one is lovely, well built, you can feel it's not a cheap one. It's stylish and feels sturdy. The back light is easy to operate, snooze button is a bonus and it's very easy to turn off. Oh another brownie point the alarm starts gently and gradually gets louder so you aren't woken with a jolt. Bit more expensive but you get what you pay for in my opinion.

Shoddy reliability for a Braun product. It took two falls to die on us. Lasted a month barely. It’s really good while it works, but won’t buy again.

Bought this after a cheaper 'non-ticking' purchase failed after a few days. The Braun is a lovely little thing - quite petite, but with a very clear display and beautiful design. Very easy to use, very quiet and it looks great - I'm very happy.

Not a great clock ended up buying another alarm clock very disappointed the hour hand was off

This works perfectly and is obviously well made. It is easy to use and see at night. However it is small and I was hoping for something that could be read from across the room as well. But for those with good eyesight, this would not be a problem, hence five stars given as it is me not it!

I bought this because I was looking for a clock that was not digital as our current digital clock is too bright. It’s lighter and smaller than I expected. But it isn’t super noisy which is good because nu husband doesn’t wake up the same time as me and I’m a light sleeper so I hear when it goes off but it doesn’t disturb him. The alarm gets louder if you don’t switch it off which is useful. It’s hard to set an accurate time if it’s not in the hour or half hour but I think that’s the problem with all non digital alarms. Overall I’m happy with it as it serves the function well enough. It has a dim orange light when you press the button to see the time in the dark.

Me encanta el diseño y la operación de este reloj

Braun is an icon of classic modern products and aesthetics, and this alarm clock is no exception. The clean modern face/graphics is very easy to read. The size is small enough for travel — there is an even smaller travel version but I wanted one that is large enough to see from across my bed and one that looks good and substantial enough sitting on my nightstand in my bedroom. The silent second hand is well appreciated especially if you are a light sleeper who is sensitive to noises. The crescendo alarm sound is effective yet not jolting. You can go wrong with this alarm clock (so much nicer than any digital alarm clock) as it will stand the test of time (pardon the pun!).

Ich war ob der Rezensionen hier etwas skeptisch wegen der angeblichen Empfindlichkeit der Stellräder zum Einstellen von Alarm und Uhrzeit. Zumindest für das an mich gelieferte Exemplar kann ich nur sagen: Quatsch. Ich habe extra nach Erhalt des Weckers ordentlich an beiden Rädern hin- und hergedreht um bei einem Versagen das Ding innerhalb der Umtauschzeit wieder zurückschicken zu können. Es steht immer noch neben dem Bett. Und das ist gut so. Der Wecker ersetzt einen defekten Seiko-Wecker mit durchlaufender, lautloser Sekunde und hätte Seiko nicht die Schaltung der Alarmbereitschaft durch ein Drehen am Alarmstellrad ersetzt, wäre es auch wieder einer geworden. Also war ich auf der Suche nach einem anderen lautlosen Gerät ... und was soll ich sagen: von dem Flüsteruhrwerk des Braun bekomme ich gar nichts mit. Auch die Alarmtaste ist gut erreichbar und straff definiert. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Bedienung. Wenn jemand exzessiv Gebrauch von einer Schlummerfunktion machen möchte, bin ich mir nicht sicher, ob der Braun der richtige ist. Aber für Sofort-Aufsteher: Besser geht nicht. Der Wecker ist kleiner, als er auf dem Foto wirkt, aber ausreichend groß und gut ablesbar. Der anschwellende Alarm ist vielleicht nicht jedermanns Sache, weil er nicht nur die Lautstärke, sondern auch sein Tonmuster verändert. Für Schweraufsteher evtl. die richtige Maßnahme, aber je länger es dauert, desto nerviger wird die Melodie. Dieses Muster in einen Traum einzubetten, erscheint mir schwerlich machbar. Insgesamt also ein erstklassiger Wecker in einem schönen Design. Der Preis ist deutlich höher als ähnlich beschriebene Produkte hier, aber ob die an diese Qualität heranreichen, wage ich zu bezweifeln. Eine würdige Nachfolge für den Seiko-Wecker.

Good quality
