Silent wall clock

Supernova

Ta

Not sure what you mean by the 'main one' but I've mailed Acctim to see if their clocks fit the bill.

Supernova

Acctim said they do an Orion Silver rim with black face or Orion Silver rim with white face but it is 32 cm - too big for the space I have.

They have a new one mid March model 74267 Genesis Silver 290mm, Radio Controlled, Silent Sweep with red second hand.

So, can anyone be more precise about the Argos ones they have?

I got one from Teco's and swore that I couldn't hear it tick with the battery connected in the shop but it very clearly did when I got it home.

Thanks islandman using Froogle found it at
Choiceful.com
http://www.choiceful.com/disprod.php?pId=12188&deptId=D1

Cheapest price around.
With postage costs £14.57 and you can get 3.5% cashback with Rpoints.
The value of the bubble wrap roll that they sent mine with was a few quid as well. :rotfl:
All in all an excellent deal.

Also the important point! :money:

The clock is actually totally silent.

I am planning to use it for my bedroom and there is NO audible noise at all.
It is quite large though, the measurement is given as 31cm, but seems bigger in RL.

The term to look out for when searching for silent clocks is
sweep
that is a sweep action as opposed to the tick tock action.

Edit: It isn't totally silent, in the dead of night there is a slight grinding

I've been looking for a silent sweep wall clock too. I came across this one on the same site and it looks pretty good visually. Does anyone have any comments?

Hi coultog, from my research there is a
Black Yoko Acctim Sweep - the one you linked

a White Yoko Acctim Sweep
http://www.clockco.co.uk/acctim-yoko-silent-sweep-wall-clock-white-p-294.html

a Black Orion Acctim Sweep

and a White Orion Sweep - the one I have

As regards there silentness then from my experience over the last few weeks, mine whilst not completely silent (grinding audible when it is quiet) does the job for me. I would assume they all have the same level of silentness.

You should go for the one you like the look.

Also see my link above for a slightly cheaper way to get the White Orion from Choiceful.com rather then clockco.co.uk

Personally I much prefer the white face and black hands rather then the other way around

Thanks for your advice, I've just placed an order, as I really hate hearing the tick tock sounds all through the night!
