Trust your clock to the experts!
Whether your car is an award winning restoration or a daily driver, THE CLOCK
WORKS will get your auto's clock ticking. We offer mechanical restoration to original specs on many domestic 12 volt mechanical clocks for as little as $59.95. (Prices vary by make, model and year. Quartz, digital drum, 6 volt, manual wind-up, and import clocks may be higher.) |
What's included in mechanical restoration?
|
Basic mechanical restoration to the clock movement includes
disassembly of the entire movement, replacement of worn or distorted components, reassembly, oiling, and calibration. We only ask that the original movement be intact and serviceable. Recoloring of faded hands, cleaning of the clock face and polishing of most plastic clock lenses is often done at no extra cost. |
What's not included?
|
Replacement of external and cosmetic components such as the set
stem, set knob, lens, dial face, hands or clock casing is normally not a part of mechanical restoration, but may be available at additional cost. These extra cost items would only be replaced at your request. Other items not included in standard servicing include electrical components such as bulbs, fuses, wiring or winding coils. |
What if the clock cannot be repaired?
|
If for any reason your existing clock movement cannot be properly
serviced you may have other options. In some cases we may be able to replace your existing clock movement with an already reconditioned movement from our extensive inventory. We also have a limited number of NOS original equipment clock movements available for select clocks. You may also have the option of having a modern quartz movement installed in your clock. Of course, if you choose, you would always have the option of having your clock returned to you unserviced at no charge. |
How long will it take?
|
This is where we really shine! Experience has taught us that customers
do not like to be left waiting. That is why we strive to adhere to a 7 day turnaround policy. Normally a clock will be shipped out within 2 to 3 weeks from the time it arrives at our service department. If there is a delay we will usually try to contact you with an explanation provided you provide us with a daytime telephone number. For those under the gun to get the job finished, we offer our $25 express turnaround service which assures your clock will be back in your hands as soon as possible! This service has made us quite popular with last minute detailers, as well as folks who don't like a hole in their dashboard. Just indicate "EXPRESS SERVICE" on the outside of the box and we will move you to the front of the line! |
What is the warranty?
|
Our policy is to repair or replace, at our option, any clock movement
returned to us for warranty service within one year of the original service date. This warranty does not cover damage due to mishandling or problems with the car's electrical system. Warranty parts and labor will be provided at no charge within the warranty period. Just return the clock with a copy of the original invoice, an explanation of the problem, and $17 for return shipping. We always encourage customers to call before returning a clock for warranty service since many times the problem can be traced to faulty wiring or installation procedures, or there may just be a trick to starting your clock that you are not aware of. Due to varying conditions such as vibration, voltage and temperature fluctuations, and due to the fact that most auto clocks are designed to be regulated by the user, calibration is normally not covered under warranty. |
