Just a word of warning if you are going to modify a MIG clock's bezel then be aware of the precautions you need to take for working with radioactive materials, it's low risk but even so!!!


I wondered why my hair started falling out!

I stripped the paint off the bezel (I'm assuming your other reference to bezel is the clock face?) and polished it with a Dremel. I'm not sure what material they use but it has stayed highly polished for well over a year!


Oh now you tell me.. I've just got a MIG clock, its certainly a loud tick! none shall sleep! I guess at Mach 1 in a MIG the clock ticking is the last thing to worry about but on my desk in my study is quite another matter.. if I find the whole of the upstairs of the house glowing at night i'll know why!!


I run my central heating on the radioactive output of my MiG clocks! I'm greedy, I've got a couple!

Keith......I think it's meant to be a 5 day movement.....mine certainly runs for 3 to 4 days. And accurate as well. As far as mounting is concerned, there should be space on the r/h side of the dash....you just need to be aware of where the ash frame is. There are two types of MiG clocks.....one with a single stopwatch internal dial, which has a body half the depth of the other version which has two internal dials, a stopwatch and a flight time recorder. The first clock, which I have on my Roadster in that position is less critical depth wise. I can measure both mine and let you have the dimensions if you need them.
