Does it chime every hour?

Yes. It plays the Westminster chime on the hour. The listing does not describe quarter-hour chimes or a night shut-off.

What batteries does it take?

It runs on AA batteries, which are not included. You will need to add them before the clock will run.

Is it a real mechanical anniversary clock?

No. It is a quartz clock with a rotating crystalline pendulum, so it keeps time without winding. A mechanical anniversary clock uses a torsion pendulum and needs winding.

It stands 9 inches tall and 6 inches wide, with a 15.2 cm oval case about 1.75 inches deep. Check your shelf depth before placing it.

No. It is designed as a tabletop or mantel clock and sits on a flat surface.

Does it make a ticking sound?

It is a quartz movement, so any ticking is quiet. The hourly chime is the main sound it makes.

Our take on the Bulova B8821 Heather Anniversary Clock

The Bulova Heather is a battery-powered mantel clock in a polished gold-tone metal and glass oval case, standing 9 inches tall. It plays the Westminster chime on the hour and has a rotating faceted crystalline pendulum behind a glass front. It suits people who want a classic anniversary-clock look without winding a key every week. Against mechanical anniversary clocks it trades the torsion pendulum and daily winding for quartz accuracy and a battery, so it is easier to live with but less of a collector's piece.
