Hey guys and gals,
Have any of you ever replaced the little battery operated clock movement inside of a pace clock?
I have one that I need to replace, but the mfg charges like $55 for the part and it should only cost less than $5....
Anyone have some history on this?
Thanks,

You should look for high torque clock movement, for use with long handed clocks. Normal movements can’t handle the torque. These will run closer to $10-$12.
Check out www.clockworks.com/quartz.html
Good site and suggestion for the high torque movement. You'll probably want the continuous movement for $16.
I got one of the Finis pace clocks for less than $200 and it works like a dream.
Where did you get it? All of the the stuff I see online is $800 or more.

This is the link to the Seiko skp site. They make precision movements and have several high torque sweep second hand motors available. These are the original motors in many Competitor clocks. Price is somewhere around 5-10.00 vs 45!
