Slabside Clock question

[jon@harrison.ne]

There is a case that is in two parts-the front part that surrounds the face of the clock, and the back. They are held together with tabs that can be bent to separate the two. The front part is to be chromed.

In looking for a clock for my Sunbeam Tiger I recently came across a Smiths reproduction. One was on ebay, the auction is over but here is the link for what its worth:

Usually you must find on UK E-bay between 200£ non working,800£+more working ,Smiths part number : CE.2194/08 at the back of the clock

I tried to up load the photo too but couldn't. Thanks for the link.

I think the case on the clock is metal, not plastic. I actually have a line on
one, just don't have it yet.

The Galaxie clock is stamped steel that is zinc plated.
