                If the lens is not cracked, brilliant restoration can be made by polishing with Brasso, most of my dash was redone this way, great finish, so clear. |

                Les, is there any chance of the black bezel ring, knob and grub screw being reproduced. I have a few clocks with these parts missing??? The grub screw would be easy enough to have made but the knob is probably injection moulded which is a little expensive, the bezel ring could probably be turned up on a lathe for the couple I need. Ive seen a lot of clocks over the years with the knob missing. No good buying them and a new lense if I cant get a new knob...  |

                I agree with this one.  The bezel is quite ofter broken/cracked.  The knobs I think i have about 10 GTS clocks in the shed.  half would be missing the knob. |

                Jason If you can send the complete clock that would be great, what ever we use we will replace with new bits as in the past
