an alarm clock... do you have one like this?

[starlover]

dp needs an alarm clock. pretty simple request.... or so i thought

but it has to:
Not be lit up constantly (just a button to press To light it up when he wants to know the time)
Not be mains powered
Not make ANY noise at all
Look cool

does anyone know of such a clock? I have seen some in Argos but it's impossible to know if they are noisy/always lit up without buying it first!

Doesn't look cool but the cheap one we always buy from Argos meets all your other requirements, small square one, usually less than a fiver, our DSs tend to get a hold of them and break them (seem to break the expensive ones just as easily) so have been through a few.

I had the same trouble. Had to compromise in the end. You'd think it would be relatively easy to find a basic alarm clock but nope. Braun used to do a great one with luminous hours but haven't seen one for years.
