These compact "AA" battery powered high torque movements were designed specifically for use with today's new larger clocks. They are the most powerful quartz movements on the market today, and they were designed to solve one of the primary assembly problems that confronts everyone making larger clocks-hour and minute hand spacing! All of the high torque movements on the market today share the same problem-they are just more powerful versions of regular movements designed to accommodate regular size hands. The new "HT" series movements were designed specifically for use with larger hands. The distance between where the hour and minute hands are installed has been increased! This increased distance will help to prevent longer hands from binding and leaves enough room to accommodate the counterweights that are commonly used on large minute hands. Movement size: 2 1/8"w x 2 1/8"h x 5/8"d. Accurate with in two minutes a year. Comes with rubber spacing washer, brass nut, washer, open nut and cap nut. Requires one "AA" battery (not included) American Made. Great for pallet clocks or any DIY clock. Southeastern Clocks
