GREAT replacement pendulum chime movement.
This is a good movement for the money. I studied all of the inexpensive movements to replace one in a yard sale find so I didn't want to invest heavily. The chime, as another reviewer says is quite lovely for a small clock. It does NOT sound tinny or cheap. Pendulum swings and there is a stop second hand. Easy to install. I'm quite pleased with the purchase, I still have to sync the strikes but that is next on my list. Would buy this again.

Fixed Pendulum length provided
I was hoping an adjustable pendulum length was provided. Everything else looks good.

Better Chime Sound Than the 30YO Original
The media could not be loaded. To be honest, more times than not, I find buying cheaper parts results in poor quality. I ended up buying two clock movements to replace the dying chime in my 30 year old regulator quartz clock with pendulum and the Westminster Chime (on the hour). The old movement was made in Japan - Takane. I bought the exact Takane replacement along with this model as a fallback. The Takane replacement mechanically was easy to install and functioned like the original regarding timekeeping but the Takane Movement has been reduced to a cheaper sounding chime that chimes 4 times in an hour and strikes for each hour at the top of the hour. I kind of like that feature but the Takane chime sounded like a toy compared to the old chime. I was going to deal with it but decided to give this clock movement a chance. It required more work to fit it as it is basically 3 parts (chime box, speaker, and clock movement). The shaft was a little smaller but with the washer and nut, it covered the shaft hole. The clock arm options were good and the actual metal was covered with protective plastic to keep it from transit marks. The shaft part where the arms connect are plastic so not sure about longevity yet. It keeps perfect time. I hot glued the speaker to the back of the clock in three tacked places so I could easily remove if I wasn’t happy with thing. (See photo) I also soldered the clock movement to the chime box to ensure I have no connection issues down the road but the pictures show it is twisted to connect. The chime box has options for different chimes or no chimes and it has a feature that shuts the chimes off at night while you sleep. If you read the instructions, it’s not that difficult to sync the chimes if you are mechanically inclined. If you are not, ask a friend or pay an installer. The best part is the sound which can be adjusted (see my video). It sounds nearly like there are real chimes behind the clock face. I’m not exaggerating, it sounds way better than I expected. I was not paid to put in this review; I just hope I help someone trying to bring an old friend back to life albeit with better sound :-)

Not big enough for a 24" wall clock
While the clock parts do work and have a lovely sound, it doesn't work for fixing my 24" wall mount westminster chime clock. It will give multiple chime options and will either chime on the hour or every quarter hour (which can be a bit much). The regulator pendulum that came with the kit was too small and the one that is original to my clock is apparently too heavy as the motorized components aren't strong enough to swing it. After 24 hours, we realized it didn't keep time. I don't think this was a component problem as much as it was my purchase of too small of a kit for my clock. I messed it up, so I won't be returning it. This review isn't intended to be negative to the seller, just to help buyers know that the size matters and it won't work for this large a clock.

Excelente Producto
Este producto funciona correctamente, el grave problema es que no hay instrucciones de cómo programar la máquina del reloj para que los sonidos del tic tong coincidan con la hora. Otra cosa muy importante y que leí en los comentarios de un cliente y es totalmente cierto y es que no se deben usar baterías alcalinas ya que las mismas dañan el producto. Se deben usar baterías AA de Carbono Zinc. Como programar el producto correctamente: No coloque la bateria de la maquina del reloj, pero si las 2 baterias de la caja de sonido, luego usted debe girar el dial posterior hasta escuchar un sonido clip. En ese momento escuché y cuente los tin tong que van a sonar, en ese momento. Por ejemplo si sonaron 6 tin tong, ponga las manecillas del reloj a la hora 6:00. A continuación Coloque la batería del reloj y ponga la hora del día en que esta para el momento en que usted esta haciendo la programación. Esto se hace girando el dial que esta en la parte posterior de la máquina del reloj. Recuerde, el reloj suena a partir de las 6:00 am y finaliza a las 10:00 pm así que tenga cuidado en colocar la hora en el segmento del día correctamente (am o pm segun sea el caso) si no lo coloco bien tendrá que girar el dial 12 horas para que coincida con el am o pm ya que si no lo hace bien el reloj sonará toda la noche y madrugada y en el día, no sonará. Espero que estas instrucciones les sirvan para colocar y programar este excelente producto.

No instructions worth helping with making the product work. No company website or contact info.
Assembled product to instructions but it would not chime on time. It would ring the full clock chimes on every quarter hour the first time, with the top of the hour ring of all the times, but not the correct time. Re-started the chimes by the instructions on You Tube, but that didn't work. Started the clock again using the 6 o'clock time, but it did not ring correctly on the quarter hour. Contacted Amazon customer service, asking for the instructions from the company, Nothing! Ridiculous!!!!
