US GE Clock 60Hz
I have a 1950s American GE electric clock, 117VAC/60Hz. Very ordinary, but it has strong sentimental value. I attach a photo.
Obviously it won't work here in UK, even with a voltage transformer. It will run slow because of the difference in mains frequency.
Can anything be done? Are these movements standard enough that I could replace the original movement with one from a vintage UK clock? Could one perhaps even just change one gear for one with a different number of teeth?
I have not opened up the clock yet so no idea what it looks like inside.
Thanks!
