Does anybody have a working clock in their center console? It seems like everyone clock has died.
I bought a reproduction clock from Auto Atlanta and it broke in less than a year. Complete waste of money. Has anybody sent their clock to be rebuilt and if so how did it work out? I think I read somewhere that only 914 clocks with a date stamp of 75 or 76 can be rebuilt as the internals changed? |

QUOTE(DC_neun_vierzehn @ Nov 23 2025, 12:00 AM)  Does anybody have a working clock in their center console? It seems like everyone clock has died. Mine works and is pretty accurate. As the car is an early ‘74 (Nov.’73), I don’t know if it’s a ‘73 or ‘74 model. I suspect the earlier one. |

I have 2 clocks with NEW movements. I was going to send them for new plastic faces BUT North Hollywood Speedometer wanted $125 plus parts. That would have made them cost about $250 each, did not think anyone would be interested at that price.

I have one that is good to go from a NH Speedo restoration but I'm not going to be back around it for a number of weeks.
If I were you, I'd find a Kienzle mechanical (not quartz) version. I have one and love it. It goes CLUNK every 45 seconds or so as the spring winds itself - just like the 914, it's so analog. Mine is dated 7/72 so it's too "early" for my 74 but it's not a CW car... (yeah - my CHT temp is a bit high here but that's been dealt with..)  |
