Springfield Precision Instruments 14-Inch Cast Aluminum Contours

Cheap Springfield Precision Instruments 14-Inch Cast Aluminum Contours Review

We bought this clock to put on a wall near our new hot tub, which has redwood-colored trim. We live in a pueblo style home in the Southern desert in New Mexico and the clock and its color are perfect. As the directions stated, the thermometer part of the clock is not accurate when in direct sunlight, but it is in shade by late afternoon when we normally use the hot tub. We had a recent snowstorm of several inches and I was curious how it would weather that sort of weather since the hands are free-standing (not enclosed), but it did not miss a beat. I am assuming it is unbreakable too as it is made from cast aluminum. It is large enough to easily see from the hot tub, as well. We are very pleased with the purchase.

Cheap Chaney Instrument 14-Inch Pewter Clock/Thermometer/Hygrometer Review

I choose the the Chaney 14-inch Pewter clock as an outside clock on my pool patio. The clock was easy to setup (add battery & set the time). It has run reliably for ~2 months providing both accurate time and temperature. I don't use the hygrometer so I can not speak to its accuracy.

It replaced a similar clock which had failed after ~5 years of service. I would have simply replaced the time mechanism on the old one, but the clear plastic cover had yellowed with age in the direct sun. Only time will tell if the same happens for this unit.

I wish they sold just replacement covers which would be much more cost effective and environmentally sound.

This product is performing exactly as expected.
