Peaceful Chime Progressive Alarm Clock

71506eps

I like the name of this item: it calms me down, makes me feel like things are gonna slow down around here for a while.

We can all use a little more slowness in our lives.

This clock lets you start your day with the soft ring of a real chime instead of a blaring radio or jarring electric buzzer.

Also works as a countdown timer.

From the website:

    The perfectly tuned B note chimes at progressively shorter intervals over 10 minutes.

    It can also serve as a low-profile office clock; use it as a pleasant signal to end meetings or break for lunch; or as a timer for yoga or relaxation sessions.

Might be nice for a therapist's office as well.

I must say, I had a little cognitive dissonance on first glance, what with the big digital time display coupled with the age-old sound of a chime.

But the alarm's audible with the hardwood case closed, so I suppose that makes it OK.

I guess.

Plugs in with the included adapter; also operates on two AA batteries.

$89.95.
