Friction Fit Clock Inserts
Friction fit clock inserts fit into an existing hole. In other words, drill a hole into any object and just push the clock insert into it. The insert alone will be too loose of a fit so there is a rubber ring on the back side to fill the gap.
Sometimes the rings will break or get lost and a simple solution is a rubber band. Slide a rubber band on the backside of the insert and we are good to go! It ends up being a nice fit with some tolerance in the hole diameter requirement.
Colors and Styles
Clockworks provides options for the dial (face) colors and also numeral styles in Arabic or Roman for the friction fit clock insert. For those who do not remember, the Roman numerals are where 12 will be show as XII or Arabic as 12.
The new way to express the number 4 in Roman numerals is no longer IV but rather IIII. This is quite disconcerting to some people who grew up with using Roman numerals.
Please note, the hand color on these units may vary from black to gold depending on the dial color and insert item number.
Clock insert construction
Generally speaking, the smaller friction fit clock insert have a more durable construction. Clock inserts with a diameter of 2" or less have a stainless steel back and metal alloy bezel. These small inserts also have a glass lens instead of plastic.
In addition, the larger inserts are all made with plastic components. The plastic can scratch. Be careful when cleaning the face of the clock. If it does get a scratch, get a new insert. Replacement lenses for friction fit clock insert are not available .
In fact, sometimes when the bezel is taken off, it will not go back on. Some styles do have bezels that screw on and off but for the most part, consider the insert broken if the bezel comes off.
I just sent a question and I believe the size I gave you is incorrect.. its more then a half inch. I have no caliphers to measure it with.
Not sure. What is at this link, are the inserts we have to offer

I have a Collectible Lenox Miniature Clock, a Guitar, with an Elgin Miniature clock in it. if I am meauring it right it is like 6/16ths I know its under an inch. the number inside the back, is 09-1999, if that is any help. would you have something to fit this clock, it probably still works if I put in a new battery, but the hands fell off inside the face and I, nor a jeweler could get it out to re attach them.. So I think I need a whole new replacement clock.. the battery I have covered, but if you need to know its a SR621SW. Can you help me?

Do the motors on your small insert clocks come in a continuous sweep or step? I’m looking for a silent continuous sweep.
All inserts are step motion.

Do you have a small clock mvt. That measures :top bezel 35mm diameter. Movement portion is 30mm diameter. Depth of entire mvt. Is 9mm
Sorry do not have that one
James
Thank you for the perfect fit up!
How do I purchase small clock insert replacement
I have a Sterling & Noble alarm clock, and I lost the stem that turns the alarm “arm”. Where can I find a replacement?
How to replace the battery
It is just like a snap back watch. Pry back cover tab with a dull small knife
Thank you !
SKU: F1 Categories, what size battery fits in this clock. I have desk item with this clock inserted but the battery is gone and I can’t find the size noted anywhere on the clock back.
It is a watch battery. When you open the back like a snap back wrist watch case, you shall see the battery within it. The battery will have some identification on it for replacement purposes
Does the stem pull out to change the time?
Yes you pull it out to change the time and then push it back in It will also come with instructions.
Yes
How do you replace the battery ?
It has a snap back like a watch. Change the battery just as you would a watch by opening it with a case knife used on the lip by the crown.

What is the size of the battery in a Hicarer 1.8 Inch (45 mm) Round Quartz Clock?
Do not know that answer
Looking for clock insert (mantle clock), friction fit with: 3-7/8″ (could do 4″) diameter ring, but limited with 2-1/4″ hole size , maximum 5/8″ depth. Hated to start making modifications to the wood body. Do you have anything that fits?
Sorry do not have that size. Only the sizes we offer online we have.
