When I moved to Sweden in 1998, I bought an radio alarm clock with a wire to plug it in and big red numbers. Big softly glowing red numbers. Easy on the eyes. I got a little discount because the cover for the battery was missing and I was a poor student at the time. But because it was going to be plugged in, I did not care about having a battery. I've since moved country four times but this thing is still next to my bed. I love being able to glance at it at night with a half open eye and know what time it is. That's it's only function. I don't use the alarm very often and if I do, I use my phone for that. And I haven't listened to the radio in well over ten years. It's the clock that is important to me. |

You mean confirming that the time you already knew it was, was actually correct.
Just like you also wake up 2 minutes before the alarm goes off.
