Hello,


There is a brand new replacement mechanisms, and genuine factory parts in stock, for most brands and models made since 1960. In fact my shop stocks the Boston area's largest inventory of clock mechanisms, repair parts, and accessories (hands, pendulums, etc.) for the repair of modern chiming and striking mantel clocks.

Visit the website below to get the mechanism www.jfkclock.com/types.html

Thanks

strange..... electricity runs in certain cycles.... maybe you need to check your electricity, or your wiring

I know how you feel... it is hell to get old. Have you tried looking at second hand stores for the old original Big Ben? I changed over to electronic digital alarms with battery backup, but I'm with you... it is not the same. It is a good thing that time becomes less critical to us as we age... except having more of it. Perhaps you can go to Westclox website and click on CONTACT, and send them a message yourself. Better in your own words than mine. http://www.alarmclocksonline.com/BigBens.htm May God richly bless you.

The Energizer 357 works in mine.

Hi faulkquarter

I take it that the clock displayed with this problem if not a 22717 model. The one I have sighted is a digital clock. Generally, you need to hold down the "time" button and also press the "hours" and "mins" buttons at the same time to set the time. If this is not how your clock appears, please give me the button names and I can write a method of changing the time for you.

regards
Graeme
