my father's clock

My father never asked for anything - until he asked for this clock. It's special in that it's battery operated and tells the time and day and isn't digital. The Alzheimer's store in NYC sells it.

I didn't realize that there was an alzheimer's store. Is that where people get alzheimer's? (attempt at humor...) I like the clock.

Wouldn't it be nice if the store took returns! (attempt at return humor)

I like this clock. Clear, uncluttered display. No nonsense.

Limitations: No year, no am/pm or day/night indication? Has to be adjusted manually for daylight saving time?

What I'd absolutely love would be one with a similarly clear display, radio-controlled, with full date (including year). The clock industry really doesn't seem to be on my side, there.
