Despite many changes of expensive batteries, our clock is v erratic. Does anyone know where we might get a replacement?

Many thanks in anticipation

Chris and Brenda

Maybe you could find someone who could change the mechanism,they all seem to be the same these days.

Thanks Richard. Hopefully it'll come off with a little persuasion!

The old round ones were push fit, held in by a wide band or rubber round the mechanism.

Indeed. I was thinking more of how to detach the mechanism from the face....

Other than carefully! I think you would need to get the glass off as long as it's not glued on and pull the hands off the shaft.

Problem solved. We took it to a watch repairer who simply cleaned the mechanism and it works fine. Took him 5 mins and no charge.
