    Default Sweep Clock Movement.

    Is there any where in Aust that you can buy sweep clock movements?
    Since I got my new ear the tick, tick is driving me nuts.

    Hi,
    "Lets Make Time" at the Gold Coast have them. They have a web site under that banner.
    Kind Regards,

    I suppose you have already checked, many Clock movement have a on/off feature for the tick.

    Probably not quite what you are looking for, but an Ikea clock at $3.00 has a silent 'continuous' motor which may be able to be taken out and mounted in your own wooden clock. TROMMA Wall clock, white, 25 cm - IKEA BYO battery (AA).

    I know that the isn't an Ikea store local to you, but they might do mail order or you may have a mate living near a store who could check it out for you.

    Have you tried eBay?
    I recently bought a movement that is labeled as silent. It is in the workshop so I have not really taken any notice, but the second hand sweeps instead of ticks.
