This small, light travel alarm carries a shipping weight of 7 lbs! Could be a typo or could be a way for the seller to jack up the price. Either way, shame on Amazon for not polcing its marketplace better.

The clock does everything an atomic clock should do except that it refuses to change time zones. Five request to Seiko customer service has failed to get a response…some customer service.
If I could return it, I would but it was beyond the warrenty period when I first traveled to a different time zone only to find it malfunctioning.
Anyone have any luck getting this beast to change time zones?

This product is not easy to use! I’am not able to have this clock pick up a signal, despite placing it next to a clock that picks up the same signal.! After many tries and moving it all over the house it still can not find the signal! I have two (2)other brands that can.
The directions are poorly written and are very confusing. The product is going back to Amazon. I’ve used many electronic clocks and this is by far the worst.
OK……After Some work I got the clock to work. The trouble was that it came with the radio signal turned off and when I figured that out it works great. 4 stars

I purchased this travel alarm to use while traveling through China and South Korea. Not once did the time change to the correct local time – and that’s why I purchased it. It won’t even change when I travel from the central time zone to mountain. The clock is much too large for a travel alarm (about twice the size of my 20 year old Seiko.) The only bonus is the fact that the clock batteries are inexpensive. Oh, did I mention that the alarm is not loud enough to wake me?

We just returned from a cruise on the Baltic Sea. We hoped this clock would automatically change the time zones as we had to do it frequently. We were near Germany, so we hoped it would pick up a signal from there. When we arrived home it didn’t even set to the local time here. And it’s difficult to set the time manually. So we were very disappointed in Seiko a brand we thought we could depend on. So I would not count on an atomic clock to do the job for you.
