A few years ago I bought a 2" black faced battery car clock that has now failed.
The company that supplied it was called "CHRONOS" but I have failed to get any response from them. Can anyone give me any leads as to where I could obtain a replacement. They used to be for sale at many shows but I have not seen them lately.

Roger,
May be I can bring help.
I have a battery operated 2” movement in stock.
Only problem is how to get it in the UK.
Since Brexit it is rather difficult in sending parts.
Let me hear what you think.

Just a thought on that Pim, the Triple M racing brigade is I think coming to Zandvoort fairly soon and perhaps one of them might "lose" a small item among their spares?

Just an anti Brexit thought!

Good idea!
What to think about this?
There are some SVW guys, from the UK, are coming with their cars to the SVW weekend in my neighbourhood! In their cars will be room enough for a spare!
Just another possibility.

The problem is sending parts to GB - there’s no problem sending parts to Northern Ireland as we’re still effectively in the EU Single Market. If all else failed, it could be sent to me and I could get it to Roger.

Hi Pim, That sounds good. Is there any chance of a photograph?
As far as potentially getting it to the UK Simon's offer sounds good
(thankyou very much) or any of the SVW contingent. I will not be at Zandvoort this year and none of the MMM locals are either.
Could you let me know the price, I have an exorbitant quote to replace the Chinese movement in mine but I am reluctant to go down that route.
Is your clock black face with "chrome" bezel?
Many thanks to you all for you contributions.


Roger

Here a small picture of the “clock”.
She runs perfect on a AG 13 battery.
Send me a picture of your non working one and I will have a look to help.
