[u/NoArm7707 → u/shamust]

Yep

[u/Humble-Sir-9148 → u/shamust]

[u/RezRising → u/Evilverbs]

Only thing that gets my kid up.

[u/Wrong_Promise2336 → u/Evilverbs]

Still have my dad’s too and it still works!.

[u/Straight-Bet1]

[u/Starmagedon]

My family never had this clock.

[u/O_Caldas]

I had it until his meeting with a hammer. My mother was looking like Thor that day 😆

[u/JPS-WC]

No… we still had one with the tumbling digits😶

[u/CarrotMuch1399]

Yes. True

[u/TechnologyFamiliar20]

This is the only thing that will survive nuclear explosion and nuclear winter (see Threads). This and roaches.

[u/HaileyReeBae]

My mom still has one. The dust in it is older than me.

[u/Ill_Raisin_8587]

They must have made a killing.

[u/Gullible_Front6085]

Evil! 

[u/DoookieMaxx]

I can hear Phil Collins voice in this picture.

[u/Significant-Pie959]

Why separate alarm volume!

[u/HitByFjaka]

Funny thing i want it again but can’t find it anywhere…

[u/stardust1914]

Ya, my mom had this exact type for like 20+ years before it stopped working.

[u/Odelaylee]

Is it one with this very evil "MEEEP-MEEEP-MEEEP-MEEEP"-Sound?
I had it as a teen - and I hate this sound to this day. Whenever it is used in a commercial or a movie my bloodpressure will be something like 220 to 160 or so... Pure hate

[u/CheekyMonkE]

I'm looking at mine right now.

I had put it away and was using a Google home but ol' reliable is just the easiest to read in all lighting conditions, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

[u/NoBoss5907]

Still do

[u/OkSecret839]

Not every. I don’t remember if mine did or not.

[u/viperfangs92]

Still got mine. Its on it's last days tho

[u/Square_Telephone_150]

I hit the snooze button so often I finally broke mine. But it was the best clock at the time.

[u/Firm_Macaron3057]

I remember those!  BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP!  LOL

[u/Goldenstripe941]

How did you get my parents clock?!

[u/Express_Ad_4166]

Can you also set radio as an alarm instead of the annoying buzzing sound?

https://giphy.com/gifs/6GY01XQBkf3lS

[u/33GoodSamaritans]

My sister used to have one exactly like that! I'm not sure if she still has it.

[u/sengariph]

Why is this picture making alarm sounds??!?

[u/69fellatx]

I still slap that bitch every morning.

[u/Enough_Photograph678]

best alarm clock I ever had you were not going to sleep through that buzzer

[u/ipx-electrical]

That would be difficult, it would have to be passed from house to house every second.

[u/Rotteneverything]

mine predated that. i had the one that had the little flip tabs.

[u/Ok-Database-2798 → u/Rotteneverything]

My older sister had it but I'm sure got rid of it as she tosses almost everything. I'm the opposite. I had the red digital clock shown above in my teens and 20's. Now in my fifties and long married, I'm sure I still have it packed away somewhere. Moved five times while married so I am still discovering stuff like "Oh that's where that is??" Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/Silent-Gear4609]

Still have & still using it ⏰.

[u/Mysterious_Tea_4094]

A workshop or sewing room

[u/wirennutt]

Still using the exact same clock 40yrs old and still the radio works

[u/thedfourth21]

Yes…. The anxiety just from seeing the picture

[u/SpiritualDamage4566]

I had one like that. Only thing different was the color. The one I had was all white. Had a sort of sci-fi look to it.

[u/Lighteningbug1971]

We still use

[u/AlwaysCurious1250]

I had one. It started to make a buzzing sound, but it stopped doing that after I put it on one side. A sideways clock was better than a buzzing clock. Worked perfectly for years.

[u/Steeleguy]

still do

[u/West-Pound-3309]

Yup 👍

[u/Mobile_Aioli_6252]

I had an Emerson throughout HS

[u/Ok-Database-2798]

I had this exact alarm clock in my bedroom in my teenage and 20's years. Now in my fifties and married 22+ years, I know it's packed away somewhere. I don't like getting rid of things if they still work and/or sentimental. 🥰🥰🕠🕠

[u/Grum761108]

I had this, only mine had a cassette player. It was loaded from the top.

[u/MommaMia1924]

[u/FloridaMadeMeDoIt]

Mine is still being used.

[u/XX_AppleSauce]

I was able to stay up reading books with this clock. My eyes are shot, but read a lot of books.

[u/Hard-DckDad]

My parents still have one of those.

[u/FineComposer870]

💯

[u/Real-Experience-8396]

I had a similar one for well over 20 years.

[u/Lmf2359]

My grandparents had them on either side of their bed. My grandpas had the red numbers while my grandmas had the green numbers. She passed in 2021 and he passed in March of this year, still using his clock until the end.

[u/quimbierthanyou]

I've still got mine...

[u/BeffasRS]

They don't make them to last like that one.

[u/Naturich58]

Oh yeah, right after I got my first SIX Transistor Radio! Was a huge deal! How obn earth did they manage to fit 6 whole transistors into that small Radio? Like - No Way! As of mid-2026, the most advanced, high-performance logic chips boast transistor counts exceeding 100 billion to over 200 billion

[u/MisterGreeter]

I had a Panasonic clock radio, not a General Electric clock radio.

[u/NeuroguyNC]

Still have a similar one. Got it to replace one that had the numbers flip over.

[u/Ok_Illustrator_3980]

My uncle had this. With I had kept it.

[u/rockalyte]

[u/KrazyKelevra75]

I had one. Got it at the beginning of high school. It died when I was in my mid 30s

[u/Extreme_Original9832]

[u/Crazy-Wheels]

My parents had the exact one back in the 80's, until my Great Dane puppy chewed the hell out of it. Something about the red glowing numbers that made my dog go mental.

Had him for 9 years, six digital alarm clocks were chewed, until mom got a old fashioned wind up one... so he attacked a night light and shoes.

I just think my dog was crazy.

[u/Agitated-Canary9840]

My cat threw up on that effing clock over and over.

[u/obsidian88darklight]

The hollow victory.

Oh gwaud the flashbacks that constant annoying as all earth loud high pitch screeching. finally the day came when it awoke me from a sweet dream for the last time. I ripped it from the socket gave it the death stare as I cursed it's creators gave it the elbow of dispare, threw it across the room only for the alarm to break and start constantly emmiting this distorted broken ring furthering my anger. I launched out of bed like JoJo charging his opponent or broly vs. Goku. I kicked it 1000 times yelling like a caveman until I remembered the batteries. I tore open the latch and ripped them out like mortal kombat instantly silencing the dream killer once and for all. By time I was done it dawned on me I realized... it had won in the end, as I could no longer could go back to bed and needed a new alarm clock for the fight to resume with a new opponent another day. A Victorious battle in a undefeatable war.

[u/Hot-Campaign6303]

I remember even the sound of the alarm clock😁
