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.

PS.....I meant to add. I'm a great fan of these clocks, they do suit Morgans and I've lost count of the number of people who see it in my car and ask about them.
The only issue with them is that they are not illuminated electrically. They have relied on the luminous dials which on mine have now worn out....thankfully as I don't trust Russian safety standards! I fitted a little stainless pillar cockpit led light to the dash to one side of the clock to illuminate the face....from Holdens. It works quite well and has a classic look. You can just see it by the upper right of the clock in the photo.

and is there space behind the dash on the right hand side of a 2013 ? Or would it need a mounting bracket ?
