I chose this kit based on just eyeballing the mechanism that was in my dead clock. It had hands that closely matched mine in style and length. It only took about 10 minutes to fix the mechanism into place with the nut, press the hands on the shaft tubes, and fire it up. Be careful to get the hour and minute hands aligned exactly on 12 when you press them on, and them use the thumbwheel on the motor to rotate the hands all the way around until you are at 1 o'clock, to make sure the minute hand hits 12 just as the hour hand hits 1. Even after positioning them together on 12 you might be a little off and you'll see it after one rotation, so you can correct it. The pendulum was more of a problem. The long swing arm was about 1.5" too short and it did not look right. I was able to slide the pendulum disk off and get it onto my old arm, however, so it looks perfect now. NOTE: I could not use the whole original pendulum arm from my old clock. It hung right on the new motor and was positioned perfectly. But it was much heavier than the pendulum that comes with this kit - so heavy that the motor could not keep it going even after pushing it to one side to get it started. These pendulum clocks work by energizing an electromagnet one way and then the other on a timed pulse so as the arm swings near the center, the magnet pulls on it essentially giving it a push each time it swings by. But the arm was too heavy for this mechanism. Using my old arm with the new lighter disk worked fine. My only knock against it is that the pendulum arm and disk are definitely thinner and cheaper looking than the one on my old clock. It's not that the original was expensive. Inexpensive home appliances like this were made with stronger, thicker materials 20 years ago, and better still 20 years before that. This one is just the next in a line of ever-cheapening product quality. But at least it looks pretty good and it works.

This is the 3rd unit I purchased of this model 12888 Pendulum Clock Movement. The first one, purchased about 6 months ago was working fine until yesterday. Now, it's losing time. The pendulum movement works, but the actual clock movement won't keep accurate time any longer. The other two units - the first one installed kept time for about a week, then stopped (clock movement). I returned that one for a replacement, and the 3rd one does not work either. In all units, the pendulum movement works fine (it's a separate function from the clock), but the actual time movement either fails after a period, or doesn't work at all. Really frustrated with this situation because I have two highly treasured clocks that I thought I had found a replacement clock movement for, and these units have failed each time. Very disappointed.

Everything you need in one! Great deal. Easy replace! Been running for months! Buy it!

All good parts to have , better the most set ups . But stem was too short for my garden clock. Had to do work on my base to make this work .
