The unlikely gang of unwitting, time-travelling criminals is back in action, following Non ci resta che il crimine (2019) and Ritorno al crimine (2021), directed by Massimiliano Bruno. Their goal in this third film is to return to 1943, to the days preceding 8 September, and steal Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting, the Mona Lisa, from the French. In their travels they meet famous characters and stumble into real historical events in an Italy overwhelmed by WWII.
By the end of the fast animated opening sequences, over the film titles, the gang has already stolen the Mona Lisaand is now by the aqueduct of ancient Monterano. Everything seems to be going well, the three prepare to return to the present-day with their haul. The time-travel portal is located in Camogli, however it will not be simple to travel through Italy in the chaotic aftermath of the armistice, amidst Nazis, Fascists and partisan fighters (“they haven’t built the A1 motorway yet!”).
The Fascist party headquarters where Moreno (Marco Giallini) and Claudio (Giampaolo Morelli) are taken after blowing up a bridge on the orders of Sandro Pertini (Rolando Ravello) and his group of partisans is Villa D’Antoni Varano, in via Barengo 182, northwest of Rome. King Victor Emanuel is expected to arrive at the Castle of Crecchio, actually Brancaccio Castle in San Gregorio da Sassola, to the east of Rome. ch-899 chouchin radio controlled clock instructions
As the story unfolds, the band’s priority is to help Adele (Carolina Crescentini) rescue her daughter, Monica, the child who will become Moreno’s mother, from a Nazi ship travelling to Naples. On a beach in Bacoli, near the Marina Grande dock, Claudio improvises a conversation in pure Neapolitan dialect to find out if the ship has docked: the headquarters of the Nazi army in Naples is actually the Castle of Santa Severa, in the Macchiatonda Nature Reserve, on the Lazio coastline north of Rome. On the beach there the Germans organize a firing squad and an unlikely battle between Nazis and the Magliana Gang breaks out.

The CH-899 handles DST automatically if you are in a region that observes it. But you must ensure:
If your clock changes at the wrong time (e.g., shifts at 1 AM instead of 2 AM), you may have the wrong time zone or DST offset setting.
The CH-899 is a quartz analog wall clock that receives a low-frequency radio signal from the official atomic clock (depending on your region, typically WWVB in the US, MSF in the UK, or DCF77 in Europe). This signal tells the clock the exact time down to the second.
Radio controlled clocks need a clear path to the transmitter. For the first sync:
| Icon | Meaning | |------|---------| | Flashing tower | Searching for signal | | Solid tower | Connected / last sync successful (usually within 24h) | | No tower | No recent reception (manual setting needed) |
| Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | Clock never syncs | Move to a different room, away from Wi-Fi routers & power strips. Try overnight (signal is strongest). | | Time is off by 1 hour | Check DST (Daylight Saving Time) setting – set to AUTO or ON/OFF as needed. Also verify time zone. | | Second hand stuck at 12 | Normal searching mode. Wait up to 12 minutes. If still stuck, remove batteries for 30 seconds and retry. | | LCD is dim or blank | Replace batteries. Cold temperatures can temporarily dim the display. | | Fast/slow ticking | Analog models: Rapid ticking means it's catching up to correct time. It will stop when exact time is reached. |
Many CH-899 models include an indoor thermometer (°C or °F). To toggle:
