The retro digital alarm clock brings a bit of nostalgia into your bedroom. The typical vintage old school alarm clock has a round face with 2 bells at the top.
Looking elegant on your bedside table, the old style alarm clock is noted for the loud ringing noise of the bells.
People love the retro style alarm clock because it reminds them of things past, of happy memories spent with loved ones.
The retro style clock is also sought after by vintage clock collectors.
I have given out retro alarm clocks as housewarming gifts and the recipients always have nice things to say about their antique looking clock.
Besides the bedside table, these alarm clocks with the old style design would fit into your old style decor theme or country side decor theme whether in the bedroom, living room or on the mantelpiece.
Small and portable, you can take it along with you when you travel. There’s no reason then to be late for any appointments.
I came across some of these lovely nostalgic alarm clocks online, did some research about them and decided to write down what I found.
Some of these retro clocks now come with modern features such as LED backlit face and showing digital time.
