Braun BC22 Quartz alarm clock White, Yellow

The Braun BC22 Quartz alarm clock in white with a yellow second hand combines a compact round shape with a simple, highly legible dial. Inspired by Dieter Rams’ AB 2 design from 1984, the clock uses contrasting hands with luminous tips and an iconic yellow second hand. It is powered by a quartz movement and runs on AA batteries, offering quiet and precise timekeeping in a compact size suitable for a bedside table.

Advantages

The BC22 prioritises usability and functionality: a continuous backlight gently illuminates the dial in low-light conditions and can be switched off by the user. The clock includes a snooze and light function and a crescendo beep alarm with a visible green indicator on the clock face. Its compact dimensions (85.6 mm width, 97 mm height, 42 mm depth) and reliable quartz movement make it a practical and durable bedside alarm clock.
