PARAOR 20 Styles Clock Hands Clock Movement Mechanism Replacement Clock Kit for DIY Repair Clock Parts (02)

This kit contains a very common type of clock movement. It's used in most of the cheaper clocks out there. It's known as a "5168".I was able to fix both of the clocks shown in my photos using this kit. The outdoor clock would stop working about every year or two. I spray-painted hands from this kit yellow to provide better contrast than what I'd had before.The garage clock worked longer after I bought it but started slowing down and keeping the wrong time.I had replaced the movement in the outdoor clock once before, using one of the inexpensive movements I bought here on Amazon but it quit working maybe a year later.After reading reviews on this kit, I realized that I'd been over-tightening the nut that holds the movement onto the clock face every time I tried to fix one of my clocks. Doing that causes premature failure of the movement due to stress on the gears or misalignment.Pros:Movement uses a sweep second hand.Quiet! No more "clicking" resonating on hollow walls.Eight clock movements in the kit.Twelve pairs of hands of different colors and lengths.Three different shaft lengths.Inexpensive! ($15 in 2024)The second hand attaches securely by screwing into the movement shaft.Quick to install - fairly easy to replace a clock's movement in about 15 minutes.Cons:It's a bit difficult to get the hour and minute hands to press onto their respective shafts - the second hand is the easiest to attach.Summary:I may not use one or two of the movements in the kit with the short shaft lengths but the kit was cheap enough that it doesn't matter. I may get a clock one day that can use them.I suspect that many people just throw away clocks that stop working.With a kit like this, just fix it!

I don't care one bit about the "original" movement in these star clocks (1960's) but these always fit the original and are quiet. Love them and the selection of hands--but and easy enough to keep original hands when necessary--hreat movement. Easy to install

Works well but be careful they are fragile.

What do you expect for < $2 each? Not much, Right? But these would be a bargain for $3- $4 !Comes in 3 shaft lengths. The short is good for a couple of mm thickness, the medium for 1/4" or so, and the longest for about 1/2" thickness. TickTock? No. This is quieter than a very quiet mouse wearing fluffy slippers. With a good assortment of hands, but no feet.

Nice kit. Comes with multiple motors and multiple styles of arms. Has a second hand as well. Installed it 2 months ago and it is still keeping accurate time. Highly recommended.

I forgot that these replacement clock movements were silent noiseless movements that mimic a corded clock. They are great, a little hard to get the hands on , but just stay focused. Wish they would have sent another set of short hands.

This has a myriad of different hand sets and several different length shafts for different click set ups. A good deal and a nice kit!

The description states "jump second movement" but they are sweep movements. Don't want them so they're going back (delayed my project).
