#1 Series 2 Clock glass/bezel supplier

Post by mark10337 » Mon Sep 12, 2016 7:46 pm

Does anyone know of a supplier for just the clock glass / plastic bezel for the Smiths CTE 3107/1? This is the later Series 2 clock without the battery.

Thanks. No new ones available there. Only perhaps a s/h one.

The glass is relatively simple: a cheap glass pictureframe from ikea, a bit of imagination to make a scoring compass and some time spent grinding the edge. Possibly a visit to a clock restoration shop either locally or cousins or meadows and passmore in the UK.

The Bezel, otoh.

Holden.co.uk sells metal bezels for the 2" and Speedo/tach units, try them.

jaguarclock.com (Mike Eck) might have them.

I think you might end up buying a whole new clock.
