Great Collector's Edition For FFXI Fans!5
A real-time clock that shows current time from Vanadiel and its moon faces and weather forecast, cool!!! Like living in it!

Very handy for FFXI players5
I keep this clock on my desk at all times. This clock is a typical every day alarm clock for the real world, but can double as a desktop game device that keeps track of the time, date, and moon phases in Vana'diel - important information for those who use the game's gardening system among other things.

The clock is an attractive desk ornament, the alarm functions are of course handy, and the alarm music is quite attractive.

The controls to set the clock could be a little more intuitive (do not lose the instructions!), but overall this is a highly functional piece of FFXI memorabilia.

Good for more than just the game...4
I bought this rather odd clock on a whim, being an avid FFXI player. After spending a little time fooling with it, I found that I have more uses for it out-of-game than in!

Setting the thing up is a little bit of a hassle, what with game time and real time needing to be in sync, but if you're not using it to keep track of game time, close is good enough. On it's own, it's an accurate and novel desktop clock with four alarm settings, which are very versatile. The alarms can be set as countdown timers, which is handy in the kitchen, or as just plain timed alarms, good for wake-up calls, appointments, etc. The alarms have a volume control, although to be fair the settings seem to be 'Loud' and 'Obnoxious'. Still, it gets your attention when they go off, and I guess that's the point. The alarms are jingly, music-box like renditions of the various national anthems in the game world. they're recognizable if you know the music, but not actual in-game quality.

As an aside, my personal favorite on this thing is the San D'orian March.

My only complaint is that the contrast on the LCD screen is a little dim, and no way to adjust it (that I've found). Other than that, I've been very happy with the clock, it's an inexpensive and novel timepiece that looks neat and does operate as advertised.
