Out of curiosity, why is there no compass or "thing in the stock which tells time" like the one from A Christmas Story?

Good Question Jon, you'll have to ask the maker of Daisy outdoor Products, other wise I think that's just Hollywood prop's for the movie ??

You can check the time randomly by pressing a button. Unfortunately my mother frequently presses the wrong button that engages either the alarm or the hourly announcements. We still like the clock but I frequently have to stop the announcements or alarm. Easy to do when you can see but not easy for the blind. There is no date option.

Unless they have added the feature since I bought mine three or four years ago, no.By the way, the thing still works flawlessly at this point. The beauty of this particular item is that the important things are big and visible.I have a dozen other clocks (don't we all?) strewn about the house to tell me the time.

Ha! You're not alone. Got this to put in my husband's stocking for Christmas and it's a dud. In the process of returning it today.

Its just a time logger. You enter your code & it logs the time that happened. You can use the up/down arrows to say "in" or "out", but the machine doesn't calculate your time. I was unable to install the software, so not too sure how it works.

i've been trying to figure out a way to get the clock to display constantly but the only way i have been able to see the clock is if you press and hold down the mod (clk) button on the top left to make it display the time. but it only stays for a few seconds and then reverts back to the radio station or sd card i have in.

I'm sorry--it was a gift last Christmas and I have no way to follow up on it's current location. I really don't have an answer. Merry Christmas anyway.

I don't think so, but the time display is very dull, not bright, and casts a minimal amount of light.

Sorry, kids just got this for Christmas. I would have to take a closer look but I don't think so.

So far I was looking for the same thing. Other sets do have them, but I wasn't able to find anything for this one. It's a pity.

The tins I purchased over the Christmas holidays has what appears to be bare tree limbs with snowflakes on them. It does not look like the picture currently shown on the Amazon site. I might add though, the cookies were OUTSTANDING!

I do believe that the Dyno Solutions should hold that clock. I have a large 3' round Christmas wreath (heavy) and it held it all winter long and there where some REALLY windy days. I did however use both of them. The only complaint that I have, is the little hook isn't permanently fastened to the clear piece...can be a REAL pain in the butt, when trying to hang something large up, in the cold (Northern MN...very COLD!!!) and the little hook keeps coming off. Yeah, trying finding that in 1 1/2' of snow...thank heaven it was still yearly in the season, we got about 5'. Good luck, hope that helps some.

Hi, I can't see it at night. I have good eyesight and frustratingly, through the years I have been gullible enough to purchase different brands of these NON-seeable clocks!! Also, the onesthat are seeable require that you reach for the clock and press a button...how ridiculous is that on a cold night?...A highly Un-recommended product.

If you can't see the time and date then its definitely broken. My unit is bright enough to clearly display the time & date, even during daylight hours. There is only one level of "brightness"(the default).

Hi, actually the hands should set themselves with the atomic clock. I know you've read the instructions but if they are not followed EXACTLY the way they are written it will not set itself to the correct time. I can't seem to find my instructions or I would point out where to look. Good luck. Happy Holidays!

Actually, we ended up sending it back because we could never get the time setting right. Sorry, I don't remember if it announced the day or not.

I haven't look into that date/time feature. The photos are horrible, by the way, but I like the camera and recommend it.
