fixing my old clock, 12 July 2010

as there are so many different types of clockmovements I took a bit of a risk ordering online. As I thought, the movement didnt fit my clockface. the diameter of the shaft was too big. And my old hands didnt fit either. But delivery of this product was speedy and refund wasnt a problem either.

Nice clock mechanism, a little overpriced, 12 Jun. 2011

This replacement clock mechanism was perfect for me as it has straight sides on the spindles which fitted the ornate hands from my broken clock. I don't know why it's listed as a toy. Requires 1 AA battery. This one does not include hands, even the sweep second hand is separate, and it works out a bit expensive once you have bought mechanism, hands and second hand separately and paid for postage on each item. Suggestion to seller, offer these items as a bundle with just one postage charge.There is a cheaper alternative available from Battery Planet at Amazon with plain black hands and a red second sweep hand included.

Rather overpriced...is it really a toy ???, 28 Aug. 2012

As with others, bought to replace a broken mechanism.Have to say, I felt that the P&P was rather too high for an item of this size....But I have to admit that, that was my own fault for not checking this properly !The mechanism DOES work well, though is somewhat fiddly to get working.Basically....Unless your old clock is particularly precious to you...and you don't mind using a lot of rather bad language ...and time ....You might be better advised to buy yourself a new clock.
