This popular wall clock combines elegance and playfulness, making it a perfect for the whole family.

The face depicts a fairyland scene with castles and horn players marking the hours. Metallic accents are combined with colorful crystals. The frame is a rich brown wood burl pattern, accented with brass.

On the hour, the face separates and a revolving led light show begins, accompanied by one of six classic tunes:

• Amazing Grace, by John Newton
• The Jupiter Suite by Gustav Holst
• Pictures at an Exhibition, Promenade by Modest Mussorgsky
• Dance of the Reed Pipes, by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
• Waltz of the Flowers, by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
• Salut d’Amour, by Edward Elgar

Additional features include a demo button (if you can’t wait) and a light sensor which shuts off the performance at night, making it bedroom-friendly.

This is one of several melody wall clocks designed by Seiko. I like the compact, yet elaborate design offered by this model, which measures about 16.5 square inches. The designers were also selective in choosing a handful of tunes with universal appeal, which are rendered in high fidelity sound.

Needless to say, this timepiece needs a fair amount of power, supplied by four D and one AA batteries, which are included.
