Anyone got a non TVR clock fitted?
Discussion
My second original clock seems to have decided there are 84 seconds per minute - 7 seconds per hour marker.
I could do without it because the stereo has a clock on it, and I'm a watch fan so I'm never without a wristwatch, but it's just getting on my nerves now.
Has anyone fitted a different clock?
I think they are 52mm diameter and bog standard 12v are they not?
And on the pre-cat they are raised bezel so anything which will fit in a 52mm hole will do?

You'll need to measure the clock diameter to be certain as not all Griffs have 52mm dials.
My early 95 has 65mm clocks (62mm hole), and I'm having to have reducing collars machined in order to fit 52mm guages as nobody makes them

If you do happen to have the same size as me, I have an accurate original clock here.

Could you offer more info please. I've just bought a carbon fibre fascia with larger holes for instruments that don't have the TVR logo. As I'm doing a T5 from LT77 conversion, I'm happy to use the larger size speedo and rev counter, but want to retain all other smaller size instruments. Making up some 'reducing collars' is a consideration and would like to see the finished effect. TIA

I've measured the outside bezel diameter of the clock Bluebottle and it's 56mm, with a black face, white hour markers, the word 'quartz' on it and the adjuster in the centre of the clock.My early 95 has 65mm clocks (62mm hole), and I'm having to have reducing collars machined in order to fit 52mm guages as nobody makes them

Change your clock for an oil temp guage?
O/T. anyone know where i can get an oil Temp and pressure combi gauge, as I already have an AFR guage in the clock hole?I think that there is a firm who do sell replica TVR guages, but cant remember who they are now.
If I can find the link, then I will post it on here.

Then your clocks are for 52mm dashboard apertures, so my old clock won't fit.is the one you have the same as this? If it I might be interested.
