Youngtown 12888 Clock Movement 15/32" Thread Battery Operated Replacement

I ordered this to replace the failed mechanism on my 15.5" diameter Mickey Mouse Glass Wall Clock. I knew that the thread length was correct but that the shaft was too long. I could not find a mechanism that had both the correct thread length and the correct shaft length. I was able to make it work by removing the grommet on the minute hand. I wanted to use the old hands, not the included new ones, because they are Mickey's hands. So, after a little tweaking it is working fine. Some reviews complain about the ticking level. I find it to be the same as the old mechanism. The clock may now be running a little slow due to the heavy hands on this clock, but I will have to see if that causes the mechanism to fail quickly. A good buy for $10 to fix an expensive clock. Before and after images attached.

This clock mechanism was an absolute lifesaver. It came with the movement and three different sizes of hands, which made it easy to find the perfect fit. One set was exactly right for a clock my husband made for me 40 years ago. When the original hands got damaged while I was moving the clock, I was completely devastated. Thankfully, this mechanism and the hands turned out to be a perfect match. Installation was straightforward, everything fit beautifully, and the clock is now back to working as it should. Seeing it running again means so much to me. The fact that this fixed such a sentimental piece for less than $10 makes it even better. I couldn’t be happier and highly recommend this to anyone needing to repair or restore a special clock.

Only complaint is when used on a larger clock. The largest hands look narrow. Not as wide as originals. Pictures shown for hands seam larger than actual. It’s hard to find the correct length and width. It’s recommended to buy a set with multiple hands. Be sure to get the correct stem length also. This one worked for thinner base.

So far, so good. It was as close to the original as I could find and it is working overnight and keeping time. The original died after a number of years and we loved the clock, so finding this as a replacement was great. I hope that it lasts half as long as the original, and the it continues to keep time.

Fit my kitchen wall clock perfectly

Great product

Our very old custom made wall clock movement was getting annoyingly LOUD! My search for a replacement battery clock movement found this one. The pro: + Okay price of $9.38 with free Amazon shipping! + Okay customer product reviews, but make sure you look at the "one star" reviews! + The clock movement is quiet, makes little noise. The cons: - The biggie... NO second hand! I'd assumed these all came with one! :( - The provided gold clock hands are "butt ugly"! They look more like tarnished brass, flat, not shiny gold color! - The thread shaft is pretty narrow, luckily, I was able to use plastic tubing to make it wider to fit the existing clock movement mounting hole. Closing remarks: ▪ Luckily we were able to reuse the shiny gold hands from the old clock movement! They fit perfectly, to my surprise, or I would have returned this clock movement! :) ▪ No second hand, but we figured it wasn't needed on this clock. ▪ I decided to gave this review 3 out of 5, instead of "1", since it did restore the operation of our kitchen wall clock.

Clear instructions. Easy to install. A favorite clock that sat in the garage for 10+ years due to a bad mechanism, is back on the wall and appears to be keeping perfect time. I had to put my ear next to the to hear it working. Great purchase.

Tried bringing my wall clock into a watch repair shop but they didn’t want to handle it, so I decided to try and repair it myself. Amazon had a great selection of different clock mechanisms, so picking the right one was easy. Would definitely do this again.

Delivery was fine and items supplied looked good, easy to install. Worked perfectly for a few days then died completely, changing battery made no difference.

Very easy to install

Nice kit.
