Bulova Flatiron Wall Clock vs Bulova Nordale Mantel Clock

Buy the Flatiron if you need a large wall clock that anchors a room; buy the Nordale if you want a mantel or desk piece with a pendulum and an engraving plate. The Flatiron is a 20-inch round oak-and-steel wall clock with a slow-swing pendulum visible through a cutout at six o'clock. The Nordale is a smaller solid-walnut tabletop clock with screened glass panels and a revolving pendulum, and it includes a 2.75 x 0.5 inch engraving plate. Both use quartz movements and run on AA batteries that are not included.

• Choose the Flatiron if you want a big 20-inch industrial-style wall clock with a peek-a-boo slow-swing pendulum.
• Choose the Nordale if you want a solid walnut mantel or desk clock with a revolving pendulum and an engraving plate for a gift.
