It has a switch to silent..but unless you turn it back on at the same location in the strike...it can mess up its mechanical brain..so for a round or two the chime might be off..chiming the 3/4 hour at the half etc..until it adjusts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airehead Posted February 26, 2022 Share #6 Posted February 26, 2022 I like hearing it at night. Reminds me all is well. The chiming never wakes me but I her it if already awake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur ★ Posted February 26, 2022 Share #8 Posted February 26, 2022 My parents had an old mantle clock that had the most beautiful bell tone. It only chimed once on the hour so it was not intrusive and like Aire says, it was quite a comfort to hear. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickinMD ★ Posted February 26, 2022 Share #9 Posted February 26, 2022 I often fall asleep in my recliner in my living room with the TV on, which eventually goes into a silent state. The next morning, at 7:30 am, my radio alarm goes off. It's semi-loud in the bed room and faint in the living room. But it still wakes me up in the recliner if I'm still asleep at 7:30 am. My subconscious must be tuned in to waking if I hear rock and roll music in the early morning - I was only late for work once in my life waking up to such sounds for decades. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerrySTL ★ Posted February 26, 2022 Share #10 Posted February 26, 2022 I usually don't wind up the chime side of my mantle clocks. They tend to wake me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted February 26, 2022 Share #11 Posted February 26, 2022 We had a Grandmother clock when I was growing up. It gets to the point, you don't even really hear it. I do remember the obnoxious gongs on the hour. It was right outside of my Mother's bedroom. I need to ask her what she thought of it. My Grandmother was upstairs so she was better placed to avoid the intrusive noise. It was my Grandmother's purchase and my uncles built it, from what I remember.
