A 'D1ZF 15000' console clock in semi-working condition :s
By that I mean the hands move with the stem, and if I manually
rewind the main spring, the clock ticks down until the points close.
The points and coils are burned and will need fixing, or you could go for a quartz replacement. A friend fixed my coils and points then installed a capacitor bank to fire the coils so no direct energy from the battery is used. I call it my 'smoke proof' clock and it keeps perfect time as currently installed in the Grande.
