https://youtu.be/kLNmyMgEvu0The clock actually was designed to run for an average at least 400 days before it needs to re-wind. However, the Anniversary date provides both a convenient reminder when the clock needs to be re-wound or a sentimental momento of an occasion when this clock was given.

placing the clock on a flat surface ,such as fireplace mantle,where without any vibration. A top of television is not recommended.
