HOW TO REPLACE A QUARTZ CLOCK MECHANISM

If you have a clock you like and the mechanism that runs it stops working, you can replace it yourself! This is a good DIY to learn! The trick is buying the right new quartz mechanism with the correct size shaft.

I learned a lot about buying the right piece to fit a clock I wanted to keep! I'll show you where I bought mine, how I chose the right type and size, how I took the old mechanism off of the clock, and how I put the new mechanism and the new hands on the clock.
