“I've only had the clock a few days, but I'm pleased with it. It does have a solid and well built feel, the movement is smooth and, indeed, silent, and the functions are easy to use. The dial is just a little "busy" with the inner timer ring; I think it would look better without it. The alarm buzzer has a good, middle of the road volume, just wish it had an enhanced feature of a more pleasing sound than the beep. Overall a good clock, honest description, and excellent service from Long Island Watch. I would buy from them again.”
“It's a beautiful piece from a great company. The second hand is sweeping. The alarm is just right. Not too loud not too soft. Also great for when we're traveling!!!!”
“I love this little clock! I've been looking for the perfect bedside clock! FINALLY FOUND IT! You can get these for a little less at other vendors, but the free shipping from Long Island Watch (for orders over $39) made this a great deal. And why not support Marc!”
“The features found on the Marathon CL030053BK are very well implemented. Wonderful silent operation, very pleasant illumination and easy access to alarm controls make this clock a real pleasure to use and behold. The alarm tone gets your attention without jarring you awake. Nice touch.”
“I got tired of the brightness and intensity of an iphones backlight when checking the time at night. The marathon alarm clock is perfect. As one who can’t stand any signs of light in my room at night, this clock emits a soft backlight that does not penetrate your eyelids. It’s there for you if you wake up and want to count how many hours you have left before your alarm goes off and once you close your eyes back it simply vanishes. Another positive Is the alarm tone. It’s a soft tone that gently wakes the morning riser. It is a welcome change to the earth shattering, universe ripping tones from an iPhone. Also the second hand sweeps!”
