It’s not uncommon for people to feel groggy, weak, or even feel “a little off” after waking up in the morning. For some people, that feeling of “weakness or tiredness” can even prolong itself throughout their day and cause them to be unable to concentrate at work. Now, this feeling of tiredness along with the inability to concentrate and stay focused might have to do with the fact that the people that experience these low energy levels normally wake up to a sound-based alarm clock. While waking up to an alarm clock may be effective to get you out of bed, this can still be quite a stressful way to start your day, especially for your body. When we wake up in this way, we can experience sleep inertia, which is exactly what gets us feeling groggy, strange and not at our best. What’s worst is that waking up to a jolting noise can ultimately be bad for your heart, as that can cause higher blood pressure and an increase in heart rate, which can both be contributing factors to an increase in stress levels. With all that said, it might just be the time to change the way you wake up on a daily basis. For that, there’s nothing like the OneClock Analog Waking Clock.
The OneClock Analog Waking Clock is a minimalist analog timepiece that features a smooth waking music based on science-backed sounds in order to gently lift you out of sleep in a peaceful and more natural way.
Unlike traditional alarm clocks that boast disrupting and startling beeps and buzzer-alarms when they start ringing at your regular morning waking hours, the OneClock Analog Waking Clock was designed to help its users wake up in a better and healthier way so that they can ultimately live better, breathe better and think better, each and every day.
To put it simply, this minimalist waking clock was designed to bring its users a truly “disconnected” bedroom, as it comes with no screens, no Bluetooth, no Wi-Fi, no App-controls, nothing. There’s literally no connectivity whatsoever, period.
With it, you can ensure that you wake up in a more relaxing way so that your body can slowly and more naturally get to a more active and more “awake” state of mind.
So, without any further ado, let’s have a more detailed look at everything that this minimalist waking clock has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with its size, the OneClock Analog Waking Clock comes at a fairly compact size, measuring just 7.1 inches long by 3.5 inches wide by 4.4 inches tall (18 x 8.9 x 11.2 cm). This minimalist analog waking clock is also reasonably lightweight, with the device weighing just 2.7 lbs. (1.2 kg).
In addition, the OneClock Analog Waking Clock also features a minimalist, warm and organic design throughout its entire body that easily matches whatever type of home décor you currently have installed on your bedroom. It simply looks gorgeous.
Moreover, this unique analog waking clock also packs a very durable construction, as the OneClock’s body is made of sustainably sourced materials in order to ensure that it can last you a lifetime.
For its outer shell, the OneClock features a simple, yet very sturdy solid aluminum enclosure that gives it a resilient, discrete, and ultra-modern look.
Then, the clock’s main body is made of a solid rift swan white oak wood, which also comes protected by a natural hand-oiled layer finish.
At the left-side of the device’s front panel (and close to the center), we have a very simple and plain Clock Face that comes safely protected behind a low glare Glass Face Panel that’s scratch-resistant, ultimately making the OneClock’s Clock Face easy to read.
The device’s internal clock mechanism is a Swiss-designed Clock Movement that’s extremely precise, which is powered by the exact same Stepper Motor Technology that’s commonly used in automotive gauges. That not only offers the OneClock’s Clock Movement mechanism a very accurate performance, but also a remarkably silent operation.
Furthermore, at the top-right side of the clock’s front panel, we also have a built-in BMR Tectonic Labs High Dynamic Range 10 Watts Speaker that’s used to reproduce the OneClock’s smooth waking music based on science-backed sounds.
The clock’s High Dynamic Range 10W Speaker is capable of boasting a Frequency Response between 100Hz to 20kHz, with a Sound Impedance of 4 Ohms.
INTERFACE / CONTROL PANEL & CONNECTIVITY
As said before, this minimalist waking clock was designed to bring its users a truly “disconnected” bedroom, as it comes with no screens, no Bluetooth, no Wi-Fi, no App-controls, nothing. There’s literally no connectivity whatsoever, period.
As such, the OneClock Analog Waking Clock only comes equipped with a set of solid aluminum knurled knobs that provide users with a tactile analog feel for a precise control that’s typical of most high-end audio components.
Integrated at close to the middle of the clock’s front-face, there’s a Multi-Function Waking Knob that allows users to seamlessly toggle between the clock’s current time and its pre-configured waking time (meaning the clock’s alarm function).
This Multi-Function Waking Knob can be used to conveniently turn the clock’s alarm function On and Off.
At the back-side, the clock also integrates a Volume Knob (for regulating its Speaker’s Volume Level) and a Clock / Time Knob that’s used for regulating the clock’s time.
The top side of the clock’s solid aluminum enclosure also integrates a Touch Sensitive Panel that can be gently touched to slowly activate a built-in Night Light that’s integrated at the top-side of the device’s Clock Face.
This internal Night Light can produce a low-light with a warm glow, which automatically turns off after five seconds.
Last but not least, integrated within the bottom-side of the device’s Clock Face, there’s also an integrated Low-Light Alarm Indicator LED that’s used to assure users that their OneClock’s alarm function is properly configured to wake them up during the next morning.
This small Alarm Indicator LED is just bright enough to be seen at night, but still gentle enough to never keep you awake during the nighttime.
POWER SUPPLY & BACKUP POWER SYSTEM
For the clock’s electric power, its power is supplied by a fixed USB-C Cable that’s connected to a two-prong standard wall outlet AC adapter.
What’s more noticeable is that the OneClock also comes equipped with an internal Backup Power System that stores your time and alarm settings for up to two weeks. So, in the event of a power outage, the OneClock will still play its smooth waking music.
NOTABLE FUNCTIONALITIES
The OneClock’s Smooth Waking Music – Based on Science-Backed Sounds
For the OneClock’s smooth waking music, which is based on science-backed Sonic Sounds, the clock’s Musical Compositions are all based on gentle melodic sounds with a slow and smooth tempo and a low and energizing intensity that’s proven to lift people from sleep in a peaceful, more natural and overall healthier manner.
It’s also worth noting that the OneClock’s collection of smooth Waking Musical Compositions were all created by Jon Natchez, the renowned composer and multi-instrumentalist of The War on Drugs.
All of the clock’s gentle melodic Sonic Sounds from its Musical Compositions were carefully created to ultimately help to bring users to a natural awakening, as they first start a low volume level and then slowly gradually increase in volume before finally reaching a user’s choice of volume-level.
Last but not least, as humans can suffer from alarm fatigue and ultimately become desensitized with sounds they’re used to hearing over and over (just like the sound of a standard alarm clock), the OneClock Analog Waking Clock also integrates a Smart AI Music Generator that’s triggered once the clock’s alarm-function (for its smooth waking music) is activated.
Basically, this Smart AI Music Generator is used to randomly choose one of the songs stored on the clock’s solid state memory and remix it by adjusting the levels of each instrument or vocal for infinite combinations.
This smart functionality is subtle, but still noticeable. That said, you can be guaranteed that you’ll never hear the OneClock’s Musical Compositions the same way twice.
