The 9/10 inch version has a 15 inch screen. The thread length should be 4mm. Depending on your situation, it may be a good idea.
Despite its nice appearance, I am not sure this is the right replacement clock. View the current work to find out if a number appears. You should be able to find a replacement part that way.
I had to cut my hands down to make my clock fit, but mine came with hands. I also had to paint the black to make them match brass. Black hands are shown in the displayed photos. The only difference is that mine came with brass.
My understanding is that MEIN is the correct swing, the only problem I have is that it is no longer working after a week. However, I exchanged the batteries and it did not work

During this time period, this clock movement remained stationary and could not be advanced. Despite clicking repeatedly, the second hand did not move from its original position. As instructed on the paperwork, I sent the company an email asking for assistance, but they never responded despite their claim that they would be in touch within 24 hours. Don't waste your time and money going there.
After a few months, the original clock stopped being accurate, so I wanted to replace it with a battery operated model since I always have AA batteries on hand. The description of the measurements as well as the ability to swing a 40 gram pendulum was I needed a product that met my specifications. It was easy to replace because I was familiar with how to disassemble the unit to gather It will be interesting to see how long the AA battery lasts compared to the C battery unit. Should I encounter any problems, I will let you know.
Updated regularly Upon learning of the problem, the seller contacted me directly and apologized. The new unit had 3 sets of hands instead of just two, so they shipped it immediately. I am giving five stars for the product and excellent customer service.
The clock movement is small and easy to use, but it only comes with one set of hands. As described in the details, style 2 is used. The style 1 hands are the only reason I bought this device. Currently, I own a clock with modern straight hands and an antique style dial. The result is a silly look. There is no point in returning it, since it would be a hassle and a waste of time.
There is no chance of misalignment with this clock mechanism. There is something magical about the tick-tock The toc second hand is synchronized with the pendulum. It was not worth my time to try chiming mechanisms (3) because they sound awful or fail quickly. There was no problem fitting the clock into the glass cover, but the shafts for the hands extended into it. A special recessed nut from the old clock mechanism is used to move the minute hand back. Used washers to move it inside and a recessed nut to move the minute hand back. In order to swing my old pendulum well, I used my old longer pendulum. In order to fit my new second hand, I used my old hour hands and cut the old ones to match.
Less than 12 hours after installation, the movement ceased working. The batteries have not worked with the three new ones I have tried. A fourth feature of the movement is that it operates as a round, press-run movement. The minute hand shaft is located in the center of the dial. A straight shaft is needed, not the oblong type used in the USA. If you are replacing an existing movement, ensure the existing minute hand will fit on a round shaft if you are replacing your existing movement. Purchase it from another retailer, such as Ronell Clock Company.
Several days later, follow up on the comments. When the item was first installed, it worked as intended. Despite the thinness of the hands, they feel cheap in the hand. The installation of the cables requires some delicate handling in order to prevent them from bending and breaking. After more than 30 days It took about 30 days after receipt for the clock to lose 15 minutes. A little more than 40 days after receiving it, it stopped working. On the day it died, we experienced a massive storm, and just yesterday we had power restored after a ten-day outage. My main clock would have been better had it been running during that time. I would like to purchase a new clock movement, but am not at all comfortable paying more money after this failed so unexpectedly.
A nice clock kit to replace an old one. The software was easy to install and set up. A clock movement can easily be replaced for less than the cost of a full clock replacement. The only concern I have is that there are not enough options and styles available for minute and hour hands. It ended up needing to be re-done Just wish there were more options/styles to choose from. I used the old hands that fit perfectly. That small issue won't keep me from giving it a star.
I found it to be a good price. It took some adjusting for me to get it to The system seems to be working well so far. I'm hoping it lasts for a longer time than a simple replacement.
