CLXEAST 20 Inch Metal Pendulum Wall Clock Battery Operated,Large Schoolhouse Wall Clocks for Living Room...
Overview
CLXEAST TI35217L96 is a narrow schoolhouse-style pendulum wall clock with a hand-brushed aged-teal metal frame, white dial, and convex glass lens. It measures 9.2 inches wide, 20 inches high, and 2.4 inches deep.
Key Features
- Two excluded AA batteries separately power the quartz movement and the decorative swinging pendulum.
- The complete indoor clock weighs 2.4 pounds and mounts on a wall.
- The seller attributes a plus-or-minus one-second daily error to the Youngtown high-torque quartz movement.
Considerations
Treat the daily error figure as a seller specification, not an independent measurement. Confirm hanger type, hardware, pendulum attachment, total swing clearance, lens reflections, battery access, and whether the finish in current photos matches the intended room. No chime or alarm is documented, and a mechanical-operation label conflicts with the stated quartz movement.
Clockswise Vintage Grandfather-Style Wall Clock with Wood-Effect Plastic Pendulum, Battery-Operated - for...
Overview
Clockswise QI004145.WT is a white 16-inch-high mini grandfather-style wall clock made from wood-looking plastic. Its rectangular case measures 9 inches wide by 3 inches deep and carries a moving pendulum below the analog dial.
Key Features
- One excluded AA battery runs both the quartz time display and the pendulum mechanism.
- The sweep movement is described as non-ticking, and the listing explicitly says the clock does not chime.
- The complete indoor wall clock weighs 1.5 pounds and requires no power cord.
Considerations
Ignore the conflicting 24.5-inch screen-size field because the specific case is 9 by 16 inches. Confirm total height with the pendulum moving, rear hanger, supplied hardware, dial diameter, hand contrast, battery-door access, and plastic finish. Choose another model if real wood, audible chimes, or a freestanding case is required.

Overview
ICE ARMOR DG-229-D is an indoor analog wall clock with a rotating pendulum and a brown-and-gold vintage treatment. The current fields describe a metal frame measuring 14.5 inches wide by 18 inches high.
Key Features
- The wall-mounted format combines an analog dial with the title's rotating pendulum feature.
- Battery-powered operation and a seller-described silent movement remove a cord and audible ticking claim.
- Metal is the specific recorded frame material, despite a generic description mentioning several possible materials.
Considerations
The description reads like a catalog of unrelated designs and does not document this model's depth, weight, lens, battery type or count, hanger, hardware, pendulum clearance, or movement layout. Confirm all of those against DG-229-D photographs. No chime is stated, so do not infer one from the classical pendulum appearance.

Which listings are actually pendulum wall clocks?
ICE ARMOR, both European-style music clocks, Clockswise, and CLXEAST document a pendulum and wall placement. ChimeTide's black and white bird clocks plus both Abdurey variants stand on furniture, and their listings do not document a pendulum. ChimeTide's gold bow model hangs on a wall, but its listing likewise does not document a pendulum. This distinction changes installation, motion clearance, and sound expectations. Do not let French, vintage, or grandfather styling stand in for function: verify whether the selected clock swings, chimes, stands, or hangs before comparing decorative finish.
How much wall, shelf, and pendulum clearance is required?
CLXEAST is 20 inches high, ICE ARMOR is 18 inches, and Clockswise is 16 inches high with a three-inch depth. Each needs space below the case for visible pendulum motion plus rear access for batteries. The European plastic models are 33 centimeters high and claim both tabletop and wall use, so their stand and hanger need confirmation. Table clocks range from ChimeTide's narrow 5.5-inch width to Abdurey's 8.3-inch-square frame; the bow clock projects 2.4 inches from the wall. Measure the complete envelope and select fasteners for actual weight and wall type.
Do you want hourly music, a quiet sweep, or no chime at all?
The two European plastic listings provide twelve music choices and suppress time reports between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.; their exact selection and volume controls remain unclear. Clockswise explicitly says its sweep movement neither ticks nor chimes. ChimeTide and Abdurey table clocks, the bow wall clock, ICE ARMOR, and CLXEAST use seller-described quiet or silent quartz wording, while their listings do not document hourly sound. A pendulum does not prove a chime. Ask whether hourly music can be disabled, how its volume changes, whether the wake alarm is separate, and whether movement noise is acceptable at the intended listening distance.
Which material, battery, and listing conflicts need resolution?
Clockswise is wood-looking plastic, not wood. CLXEAST specifies metal, glass, and ABS; ICE ARMOR's specific frame field says metal even though its generic description lists several possible materials. ChimeTide and Abdurey document metal frames and glass fronts. Power also varies: CLXEAST uses two AA cells, Clockswise one AA, and the first European music clock four AA cells, while the second omits its count. ICE ARMOR omits battery details and relies on a generic description. Resolve any conflict that changes mounting load, sound, power, moisture tolerance, or pendulum operation before purchase.
