Where to get a 24-hour quartz clock movement?

Dec 08, 2005 15 Replies

Can someone tell me where I might get a 24-hour quartz clock movement? Have tried budetime.co.uk, clockparts.co.uk and everglades-int.co.uk - they can't help.



Should surely be able to get one somewhere for a few pounds...



Doesn't have to be in UK.



Cheers,



Chris



I'd like not just a 24-hr movement, but one with a WWVB receiver. I've got a nice Simplex 24-hr clock to put it in.

The site is not navagational for some reason? you will obtain what your looking for here though, if you send them an email and request a catalogue they will send you one out. If I remember correctly the quartz movements where in the region of £3.50?

Hi Chris local 'craft' shops often have them - the sort of places that sell rubber stamps, DIY 'scraper art' kits, beads, stuff like that.

Why not buy cheap clock and take out the movement?

Which of these is a 24-hour movement?

Good point. None of them I guess. I'll get my coat...

Cheap (and most other) clocks tend to be 12-hour, not 24.

few pounds, Don't think so, But If you like to confuse people you could always work on Martian time.

sidereal, rather than solar time. Anyone ever heard of such?

You didn't scroll to the bottom of the link then !
