Hi Doug

I did look around and whilst you can get Smiths 60 mm and possibly also get the rounded bezel, the Morgan clock with inner and outer marking seems specific to Morgan and has to be ordered as a bespoke part. If you look at it on that basis as a bespoke part then £152.00 delivered isn't that bad.

You are correct. But for some, double the price would not be justified for a cosmetic feature that most people would hardly notice. However, each to their own, “you pays your money”, etc. I guess it’s why some wear a Rolex and others a Casio to tell the time.

The Casio is probably more accurate

Double the price @ £150 for a genuine / bespoke clock is justified when the cars cost me over £40k

If we’re talking bespoke, to justify the cost let’s see one with a Morgan Wings logo on it rather than the common or garden, “Smiths”. My hand may then be prepared to go deeper into the pocket!

Go ahead Doug, can’t wait to see it

Mine has a sicker on the back 'Inspected T Jones' That alone must make it a collectors item!

Final position 160mm from Rev Counter centre to clock centre and in line with the Speedo and fuel Gauge which are slightly lower than the Rev Counter.
This gives 15mm clearance at the 1pm position from the Ash frame on my car. Clocks are built to order and the Smiths factory lead time is 2/3 weeks at the moment.

EAC2-1052-01C MORGAN ANALOGUE CLOCK 60mm MORGAN Black Dial HRC. Cost £117.00 plus drat and postage.

Pleased with the result but like Craig says no margin for error on getting a clean cut through the dash (unless you fit the rubber gasket that comes with the clock). Ive left the gasket off mine as the factory don't fit gaskets on the Rev Counters and clock.
