In fact so impressed with the rolling seconds and tutorial video, I purchased it via your link, thank you ❤…now if we can get the exact specs (non ticking, stop2go feature) into the Stop2Go watch… 🤔
A small update! After logging the network traffic for a few days, I can see that the Mondaine clock connects to the internet every night at 9 PM to sync the time. :)
Thanks so much for this. My wife bought me this clock for my birthday and all the info that came with it stated I needed to set it up via the Mondaine app using bluetooth. Obviously it didn't work and I'd given up on it and was preparing to send it back. You video just happened to Pop up as a suggested watch and following your instructions, it's now working. Mondaine really should put the correct instructions in with their products.
I have tried this new Mondaine WiFi clock for a few weeks and must say that it is a very big improvement compared to the old Bluetooth wall clock that could not keep the correct time. Please note that this clock can only connect to 2.4 Ghz WiFi networks. In my case, I also needed to disable 802.11ax/WiFi 6 mode in my Asus router, for the clock to connect correctly. I have recently enabled logging in my router to see if and how often the clock periodically connects to WiFi to sync the time, so far it hasn't happened. Regardless, the clock seems to keep time very well. 🙂
Naturally I was expecting that the "Wi-Fi model" would come with temperature sensor as it was with "Bluetooth model", however I wasn't able to locate such functionality so far. I mean, it's not like it bothers me, not at all, not even something that I used often. And, it does whole lot a sense to reduce the cost of production by dropping off redundant "bluetooth"/temperature functionality as well as concerns that came with maintaining iOS and Android apps. This is understandable. No doubt, that is still all-around well-made product. There is one thing that bothers me a little bit in Mondaine wall clocks is that they aren't Swiss made.
Is it possible to re-align the hands if the clock comes with the seconds hand not quite stopping at the 12 o’clock marker, or the minute hand isn’t quite advancing centered over each minute marker? This seems to have been possible with the BT version via the Mondaine clock app. While you can press both buttons to enter search mode (clock kicks off its own wifi network for the purposes of setting timezone and local wifi network to join), I wonder if they each provide access to other distinct functions. I see nothing in the manual that mentions the role of each button, only that if pushed together for 5 seconds it places the clock in setup mode.
Quick question, when I come to change batteries, does the "one-time setup" need to be repeated, or does the clock remember WiFi settings? Is there a need for manual intervention for daylight savings time adjustments, or can the clock handle this automatically?
1. Battery Change - The clock will sort itself out. Once the new batteries are loaded the hands will wind around to the 12 o'clock position and then keep going until it reaches the correct time. this can take a bit of time to finish. 2. Daylight Savings - You have to manually change the time for daylight savings via your phone.
Hi, I am not convinced it synchronizes periodically (with wifi or other mean). E.g., you have to update manually the time for daylight savings. What do you think? Cheers
Thanks for a great video. I have one of these clocks. It sucks that I have to manually set (via my phone) daylight savings time on or off. My WiFi connected weather station clock deals with DST changes automatically so I don’t really understand why this movement can’t do the same thing?
My concern about this clock is that it relies on technology that changes very quickly. I've never had a phone more than three years. Will this beautiful (and expensive) time piece go to the bin in three years? Thanks!
I find it annoying that you have to take it off the wall to adjust for daylight savings. You would think that it could automatically connect to your phone somehow, such as via and app & Bluetooth. This is disappointing for such an advanced clock.
Agreed, although it's only to press the two blue buttons on the back, then you use your phone to adjust for daylight savings. I assume that they could have made it automatic, however this could cause problems for border towns where one state/country uses daylight savings and the other doesn't (even if they are nominally in the same time zone). This is the case in Australia where the eastern sea board states (Tasmania, Victoria, Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales and Queensland) all sit within the same time zone, except in summer when only Queensland doesn't use daylight savings. There are substantial border towns straddling the New South Wales and Queensland border and I would image that if the clock adjusted automatically for daylight savings then there could be some problems encountered if you were just one house apart for example and straddling the border. Your clock might adjust automatically or not depending on where your internet provider is located (their clock time specifically). I'm just guessing though, and I really don't know why it's not an automatic process.
The clock doesn't know what timezone its in apparently. Shame you cannot set that from the UI. Your phone can get its timezone from the phone network. Your computer needs to be told its timezone at setup time. For Australia, that might be NSW/Sydney which conveys both GMT+10 and also the DST changeover points. Timezones also need maintenance maintenance / support, as politicians change them occasionally. Support for a clock might be a new concept.
The simple answer is yes it is more accurate than the blue tooth version because it takes its time from the wifi network much like your phone does. The accuracy depends on how often it polls the wifi network for the time and unfortunately I was not able to find any technical data on that from Mondaine
Great, they almost managed to imitate the original. However 2 Features are still missing, which I find personally a bit disappointing as they would be easy to implement or to patch: 1. The minute pointer jumps, rather than slides, after the seconds pointer stops for 2 seconds. This is a small detail, but if you are already doing everything to imitate the original, why not do it properly? 2. Daylightsaving should be automatised. I hope they can patch these functionalities for the future. A bonus feature would be: 3: Synchronisation of SBB clocks among each other in the same country/region
That doesn't sound good. I don't know why it would be doing this. I would recommend taking the clock back to where you purchased it from and ask them to organise to have it assessed.
Mondaine have advised that you have to manually change the clock time for daylight savings using your phone. I have found that the clock maintains very good time though.

Finally a ‘rolling’ seconds hand. Now it represents the real thing.

Thanks, much appreciated
Now I can finally buy it! Was waiting for the sweep action to more closely resemble an actual rail clock. :)

I’m glad it helped. Thanks for your kind comments

Great demonstration. Thanks from the states.
You’re welcome. Thanks for your comment. Regards Andrew
I have the regular and the bluetooth at present, I will have the Wifi next weekend, Thanks for this video will refer back to it next weekend!
No problem 👍
2 weeks a go got the wifi model. I love the movment, as it copies the original. Did o like the colour, I 3D printed 1 mm thick red cover.
super well made and educational video!
Greetings from Sweden
Glad you liked it!
Finallllly i just wish it were the real size too .. 😍🥳
The Stop2go clock only comes in 25cm size. You can get the standard quartz movement in 25cm and 40cm sizes. They’ve been available for a long time
The instructions from mondaine show WLAN, not WiFi, ThankYou for this.
That’s why I did this video to clarify that point and remove any confusion that this clock does actually connect to wifi
Hi,
WLAN stands for Wireless Local Area Network. So that's the same as WiFi.
Naturally I was expecting that the "Wi-Fi model" would come with temperature sensor as it was with "Bluetooth model", however I wasn't able to locate such functionality so far. I mean, it's not like it bothers me, not at all, not even something that I used often.

No doubt, that is still all-around well-made product. There is one thing that bothers me a little bit in Mondaine wall clocks is that they aren't Swiss made.
Where are they made? I didn't see an indication in the video--nothing on the back of the clock, nothing on the Mondaine website.
Very handsome design and function--a thing of beauty. Very steep price--for me anyway.
Is it possible to re-align the hands if the clock comes with the seconds hand not quite stopping at the 12 o’clock marker, or the minute hand isn’t quite advancing centered over each minute marker?

Your local watchmaker or clockmaker can adjust it for you.

Hi, I am not convinced it synchronizes periodically (with wifi or other mean). E.g., you have to update manually the time for daylight savings. What do you think? Cheers
Yes it does synchronise via wifi frequently and maintains accurate time. Changes to daylight savings have to be done manually though.
Second hand seems to glide, but how loud are the minute hand tik tok sounds and hould loud would you evaluate this clock?
Great video! How quite is the clock?
Very!
Thanks for a great video. I have one of these clocks. It sucks that
I have to manually set (via my phone) daylight savings time on or off. My WiFi connected weather station clock deals with DST changes automatically so I don’t really understand why this movement can’t do the same thing?

On an other video it said you don't have to take it off for daylight savings. Only to change the batteries
I find it annoying that you have to take it off the wall to adjust for daylight savings. You would think that it could automatically connect to your phone somehow, such as via and app & Bluetooth. This is disappointing for such an advanced clock.
You do have to take it off the wall to change the batteries and to update the time for daylight savings.

@@FormanddesignAu I have had this clock (in the UK) for 11 days and the time has remained perfectly accurate with no loss or gain.
Please may I telephone you for help. I have no register of my clock on my iPhone. Michael in England.
Sure
Please help me. I see no wi-fire reference to the clock on my iPhone.
Can you give me a bit more information. Have you followed all the steps in the video? Does the clock respond to anything?
Great, they almost managed to imitate the original. However 2 Features are still missing, which I find personally a bit disappointing as they would be easy to implement or to patch:

Hello, I have Mondaine stop2go wifi, and I have one problem with two minutes of delay, do you know what is a reason of this?
That doesn't sound good. I don't know why it would be doing this. I would recommend taking the clock back to where you purchased it from and ask them to organise to have it assessed.
Does this Wifi clock able to switch the daylight saving time automatically?
I’ll be able to tell you in October when our part of Australia changes over.
No it does not 😔
Mondaine have advised that you have to manually change the clock time for daylight savings using your phone.
I have found that the clock maintains very good time though.
So this model is MSM.25S11?
Yes
you would think they would automatically adjust
I can't do this on an Android
