<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gregsglass, post: 144745, member: 78&quot;]Hi,</p><p>&nbsp; My FIL had an old mantle clock from his father. A local clock repairman came and collected the clock. He ripped the guts out and replaced with a battery movement. My FIL did not know that the repairman replaced the guts. He found out a week later when the clock was not striking the hour or half hour. He called the repairman and wanted to know why it did not need winding or why it was not striking the hours. When the repairman told him he replaced the guts with a cheap battery movement, my FIL almost had a stroke. I told him to wait until I came down to take a look at it. No, he had to have it fixed right away. Now he hates the clock but not as much as he does the repairman. The repairman is NOT a clock repairman he is a retired jeweler.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
