Clock Movement Mechanism Kit with 3 Pack Hands, Silent Sweep Quartz 12888 Motor, DIY Replacement for Custom Clock

There are many of these replacement clock mechanisms available on Amazon, and many of them will NOT fit your clock. They are of multiple sizes in multiple ways. Check all of your clock's mechanism measurements against each of the measurements in the display advertisement before ordering. With that said, after doing my homework, I simply waited a few days for the delivery. Assembly was not difficult at all, and instructions were clear enough. There is a nice choice of which set of hands to use (multiple provided to better match your own clock face). It has now been up and running for nearly a month, and accuracy is within just a few seconds if not dead-on the setting when I first started it up. Plus, the price was quite reasonsble. What else could someone want in order to repair a more expensive clock for just a dollars and a few minutes of assembly? Well worth the 5-star rating. Considering the small parts and the need for good light and vision, this could be difficult for some, but otherwise, assembly was rather easy.

I have been designing and making clock faces for years and years. When I first started designing clocks the internet was not a thing (yes, I'm old, go ahead and laugh at me. You'll be old some day too) and clock parts were difficult to find. There was (and still is) a company that specializes in clock parts like this and honestly I felt a bit guilty for not purchasing this movement from them, but I was in a rush to get the part and no one is faster than Amazon so i buried my guilt and bought the part here. Honestly I wasn't sure whether it would be up to par. Wasn't sure whether it would be as good as the ones I am used to. It's just as good. Works perfectly. Silent sweep second hand, keeps good time and was easy to put into my clock face. The hands pushed into place easily. I tried really had to find something I didn't like (because of my guilt about "cheating" on the other company) but there is nothing not to like about this. It's great. BOTTOM LINE: Absolutely perfect movement, silent, easy to use and seemingly well made.

Replaced an original mechanism from a Seth Thomas wall clock. The replacement had a wall-hanging attachment that was not needed. The thickness of the ring on the mechanism for the attachment made the length of the threads too short. I had to counterbore into the wood portion of the clock to allow threads to reach the washer and nut on the clock face. The timekeeping mechanism works great!

I have a clock that is probably about 50 years old and my husband bought for me. The clock was not keeping good times in the hands were getting bent so I bought this in November 2024, to replace it. It really is not hard to install and it really works great. It gave you a choice of different hands and if I ever need to I would order this one again. The price is very reasonable, and they are quite accurate.

I bought this to repair the battery powered clock in my garage. Fit perfect and was very easy to replace the old movement

For the price, you can't beat this silent movement. The three sets of hands are a nice feature. The mounting bushing can be easily shimmed with 1/4" flat washers to obtain the proper face alignment. I used the gold color hand provided, but they were too long. Since they're made of aluminum, it was an easy task to snip them down to size with small electronic wire cutters to almost exactly match the clock's original hands (a 1947 Seth Thomas electric mantel clock). There is a "button" that you insert into the second hand driveshaft if you don't need the second sweep hand (I didn't). All in all, it was a half-hour project, and I'm very happy with the result. Purists might scoff at the notion, but it's a great way to preserve the look and functionality of an heirloom clock with a worn-out gear train. After all, you can always re-install a rebuilt movement should you happen to find one, since no case mods are required. Keep all of the clock's original parts "just in case".

Esperaba algo mejor. No son fáciles de instalar.

This movement is great! It was very easy to install and is very accurate in keeping time. A clock I loved but was broken for years is now running perfectly again...and is even better with the sweep second hand this movement has. I don't know why there are people on here saying the hands don't move...but the second hand does or that this is cheap junk. It's not junk and I suggest to those that purchase it to read the instructions and all your hands will work and your clock will keep perfect time. The three most important things to remember: 1> Don't over-tighten the hex nut that holds the movement to the clock face...just snug it till the movement case won't turn. 2> When installing the hands on the shaft, use your thumbnails on equal sides of each hand and work the hand down on the shaft until it stops ( it does take quite a bit of pressure ), just use steady pressure and wiggle a little if you have to. 3> When installing the hands (all 3) make sure they point dead center on the "12", and only use the thumbwheel on the back of the clock movement to set the time. Do not move the hands with your fingers except to make a "fine adjustment". If you follow the instructions and my advice above, you simply can't go wrong. Hope this helps a few of you. Im a very happy customer and highly recommend this movement.

ok

I have had this clock for many years. It says London Bridge, Platform 2. Quite unique. It stopped working and not wanting to get a new clock, I looked on Amazon and found many types of Mechanism kits. We measured very carefully to make sure we ordered the right one. Very happy to say that we purchased the right kit and it was very easy to install. We now have a perfect working clock.

very good quality. unfortunately, I ordered the wrong shaft length, so I have to return it. I'll be looking for the same product, longer shaft, for sure

Wrong size shaft shipped but I made due. Overall it seems to be of decent quality and keeping time so far..

Easy to install and works perfectly. Choice of two different hands. Quiet so no ticking noises, perfect.
