They seem pretty good, except of the 5 that I have used from this set of six, one of them will not run. Yes, I tried different batteries.

I bought a vintage Coca Cola clock for about a quarter of the price it is worth because the mechanism didn't work. Bought this pack of mechanisms and arms, and it works absolutely perfectly now. I used the white arms for hour and minutes, and the red arm for the second hand. Took about 5 minutes to take the old one off, and about 2 minutes to get this new one on. Had it on the wall for about 3 weeks and it hasn't lost any time yet. Very happy with my new clock

I bought these with a single project in mind. After such a resounding success, I immediately made several versions with similar results. A quick pattern on the laser cutter and a gift of time is born! I liked being able to choose the hands that fit the project with a simple install. Christmas is coming again!

These are a great option to fix old clocks you like, but don't keep time well, anymore. Also, my son keeps ripping the batteries out of my old clocks, because he can't stand the noise. Problem solved.Pros:* Quiet. No ticking.* Easily replaces any old clock works, as long as you can take the original unit out without destroying the clock. (Not a given - some are glued in, or the clock is welded shut.)* A variety of clock hands come with it, which is good, but not all are going to suit your taste.* Second hand is included, & not all do, so I like that second hand.* Price is good. I got a few spares, but I'll use them eventually.Cons:* A variety of clock hands come with it, which is good, but not all are going to suit your taste. Some are pretty ugly, but the hands are not a compatible hole size to my old clocks, so you can't always reuse the original clock's hands.* Sizing is very difficult to guess. Pay attention to the shaft length. Depending on how thick the clock face you're using is, you'll want a different length of shaft, so the hands clear the clock face, but don't protrude past the clock's glass cover.It's Not all the same, & I had some fit perfectly, but 2 clocks I replaced had to go without their protective glass cover, because the shaft protrudes too far. No real way to know, until you dismantle the clock, and try it. For mine, they were all broken clocks before, but now they do work, so I live with the fact that they're not covered. Both were small clocks (3-5"). The bigger clocks all fit fine.Keeps Time? : This was my second pack, and the first set all worked perfectly. Out of 12 clocks total, 2 are spares - unused/unknown. Of the 10 I have installed - 1 gains time slowly, at 2-3 min/week, & 9 work great. No gain or loss of time, after months of use.

Not sure why but they make a very high pitch noise. Tried with a lower power zinc carbon battery as well as alkaline to test it but it didn’t make a difference. Quite annoying, haven’t been able to use the set. Couldn’t return it as I didn’t start using until after the return window.
