Need more power

My wife bought a very large watch that had no hands that worked. I bought a "regular" clock motor that was having trouble moving the big hand. After reading and understanding that arms over 9 inches need a high torque motor. After installing this motor on my 11 inch arm it runs great and keeps time very well.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Negative experience

It's still keeping great time

I bought a beautiful huge watch which I really like. Unfortunately, the clock mechanism never kept time and eventually died. I think it couldn't support the weight of the hands on the watch, or maybe it was just defective. Anyway I didn't want to return the watch so I ordered this replacement movement and it has been working great ever since.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Available in white only

Quiet, which is what I wanted, but the clock hands are huge.

I need a silent clock because I have a loud clock in my office that is driving me crazy. (I love watches but this is ridiculous.) So I ordered this movement to replace and the hands are HUGE. How, giant. I give it 5 stars because it's quiet and works great, and it's my fault for not paying enough attention to the size.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Reliability

Works well - in watch hardware

This works and appears to work well but is made of very thin metal material. So when you try to install and adjust it, it bends very easily and you can see every curve of the material on the wall. I contacted the seller regarding this and they were great and sent me a new one due to the inconvenience. I haven't installed a new one yet as I wanted to check first if this mechanism is keeping the correct time. When I do this I have to be very careful during installation to not bend my arms! Looks…

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • Requires socket

Works great on heavy long watch hands.

1 YEAR UPDATE. Unfortunately, the movement begins to fail after less than a year, the clock hands are a few minutes behind in 24 hours. The problem isn't the battery as I tested it with several new batteries.——————Worked well on heavy hour hands. My 4-foot galvanized clock in the pottery shed stopped telling the time. I tried replacing it with another company's "High Torque" movement, but it couldn't handle the weight and length of my watch hands. About a month and so far so good, this mark is…

Pros
  • 1 Year Trial
Cons
  • Protection

Fell Apart - Hardware

I spent 12 years restoring clocks in public schools so this isn't the first clockwork I've installed. It wasn't the cheapest mechanism. I was looking for a decent quality one. When attaching the supplied arms I noticed that the minute track had excessive play. Finally he fell. I would not recommend purchasing this item. If the seller wants to send a replacement mechanism, I'm willing to try again. But I won't spend any more time deleting and sending back this movement. The photo shows a shaft…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Out of style

Easy self-assembly for devices

Item is delivered quickly and is easy to install. I took my watch to a local watch shop and they charged $115 for a movement replacement. Uh, I paid $85 for a watch. I decided to try this high torque movement as my watch is too big and you can never get too much torque with your hands open. Fast forward. It has been hanging on the wall for several weeks and does not need to be adjusted. I can speak of durability as my last movement I received with the watch lasted over 15 years and this one…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • In order

Pretty good spade hands. Perfect for giant wall clock with stickers

I like my clock a lot. I would caution anyone planning on doing it yourself, this is a very large set of hands, so plan for a two to two and a half foot diameter clock like I had, and that's exactly what I was looking for my huge one Watch. I found other clock hands made for faceless but they weren't gold and I really wanted gold hands that would look great with the gold team of wall decals I also bought. It was very easy, just cut a very small circle out of cardboard and light blue design…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Boring packaging
