Just shelled out £182 for a Series II glove box clock only to find it didn't work when I connected it to a battery!
Not being sure what was wrong with it - dead motor, seized or broken gears etc. and other work needed on it to bring it up to good condition - I decided to send it back for a refund.
Search goes on for a decent working unit but in the meantime this 1930s Smiths clockwork one runs for 8 days on a wind up and even keeps perfect time!
