Time Clock
This is a very good time clock. Have been using Lathem for years and have given us very good service. We would highly recommend this product.

NO tally of hours...???????
The machine does not tally the hours. Not per day, nor weekly.
I set it up to hundredths/minutes to make it a little simpler, but it's on you to do the math per day x 5 times (per work week)
If I knew this in advance, I wouldn't have bought it.
Buyer beware.

atomic clock
pictures and specifications don't match the product ,its not an atomic clock , the time has to be manually set. I was looking for a time clock that would right itself after a power brown out or black out.. Disappointed , mounted and using for now

doesn't work
Was happy with the product at first. After a few months the time clock would jump forward an hour for no reason whatsoever. It would then correct itself the following day only to have the same issue a few days, weeks or 24 hours later. It is not worth it and I am returning.

lasted just over a year, not as good as old clock
We bought this in July 2020 and its lasted us until September 2021, so just over a year... and of course the warranty has expired. We had it in a dusty warehouse so maybe that was part of the issue. Apparently they've been having trouble using it for awhile before it quit on us, so it may be worth the while to purchase one with a longer warranty period. For the price yo...

Keeps time correct with the atomic clock sync mode. I was a little apprehensive about set up but by following the step by step instructions in order, the methods for changing things became clear. The labels inside the box are very helpful for any future changes. I like the manual mode for punching time best. I recommend the factory time cards to go with it.
