One of the main goals of home decorating is for the property to stand out. What better way for you to do so than by adding funky wall clocks to the space? They have detailing and silhouettes that never fail in standing out and distinguishing rooms from all others. As there are different types of funky wall clocks and you’d have to consider a number of things when making a selection, check out our buying guide below!

What are the most popular forms of funky wall clocks?

Among the oldest forms of funky wall clocks are cuckoo clocks. Their timelessness has never gone out of style. If one mentions about a wall clock, we guarantee that a cuckoo clock will cross your mind. This type of funky wall clock can either be a chalet or a birdhouse. Regardless of the shape or theme, a cuckoo clock comes with a mechanical bird that pops out of the clock's door to accompany the chirping noise which activates on the hour. Most cuckoo clocks come with leather, cherry, oak, and mahogany finishes.

For a funky yet stylish wall clock, go for antique units. They are mostly pendulum operated.

As of late, funky wall clocks come with new age designs and motifs of the moon, stars, and the sun. Other popular forms of funky wall clocks have designs of roosters and fresh fruits, which make for great kitchen additions.

If you'll be adding a funky wall clock to a kid's room, consider getting a neon wall clock. It isn't just an incredible way of adding extra light, but it is also both fun and funky.

What are the pros and cons of mechanical vs quartz movement?

Choosing between mechanical and quartz is similar to choosing between automatic and manual transmission for cars. Both options have distinct advantages and certain disadvantages. The best one for you will depend on your personal preferences.

A mechanical movement is the type that requires periodic winding. For some people, winding a clock can be pleasurable and a source of joy. They take delight in being able to engage with the clock’s inner workings and feeling a historic connection to a clock.

However, for the battery-operated clocks, they are great options for people who want clocks that run on their own. The quartz movement allows you to be free of responsibility. Unlike mechanical key-wound wall clocks which require routine maintenance like oiling and cleaning, battery-powered clocks aren’t a pain to maintain as they’re close to maintenance-free. All they need are battery replacements.

How do I choose the best musical wall clock?

The best musical wall clock for you is one that emits a sound that you find pleasing - and also allows you to tell the time visually. As you’ll be both seeing and hearing it, you should make sure that the clock fits in aesthetically with your current style and decor. Select a clock that has similar colors as the rest of your room, or comes in a similar wooden shade or metal hue.

For the auditory side of this selection, pick a clock that chimes on the hour, instead of every fifteen minutes—this will lead to less clock-related frustration. The chime should be short and pleasant; remember, you’ll be hearing it a lot - you don’t need to jump out of your chair every time you do.

What is a Rhythm clock?

Rhythm Clocks is one of the biggest clock companies: founded in 1950, it’s now famous worldwide thanks to its wide range of musical wall clocks as well as table models and alarms.

It’s definitely the most popular and acclaimed brand when it comes to musical wall clocks. However, nowadays you can find many different reliable ones, too.

Bonus Tip: As you’ll be getting a funky wall clock, you need to ensure your space can accommodate décor that’s quite unique. Also, consider the room’s color scheme to determine the right color for your clock. Never forget to pick the right size. Dealing with a wall clock’s size is as crucial as choosing a clock’s style as it will affect the clock’s readability. If you have a room that has a considerable size, it’s better to pick the funky clock that’s bigger so it doesn’t drown out in the space.
