<VV> EM top of dash clock

[Eric S. Eberhard]

Replacing the workings with modern quartz is a criminal offense 
:-)  You lose the very cool sound of the clock running (tick tick) 
and the very cool sound of the points rewinding the clock (a loud 
clacking sound every minute or so).  The clocks are very clever and 
whenever you adjust the time they actually change their timing.  If 
you move the time ahead, the clock will speed up.  If you move the 
clock back it will slow down.  So, after a few weeks of fiddling and 
setting the clock each time you use it, the time zeros in on exactly 
correct.  All of mine do (I have 3 now) ... until they don't ... and 
then I send them for a $100 rebuild which seems to last about 5 years 
(basically a cleaning, oiling, and a minor electrical mod if the 
first time).  I leave mine plugged in and running on cars I don't 
drive for months ... I don't believe it draws enough power to matter, 
I certainly have no problems.  E
