A gentle touch is the key.
The reason this has one star reviews is the clowns who bought them don't have patience and skilled hands. I have a beloved saw blade clock in my garage that served well for many years, then the mechanism went bad. They don't make this clock anymore and I was distraught at the thought of throwing it away. I found this product at Michael's and it is the same size and design of the original piece. Now here is where brute strength and a mechanic's tool set doesn't work. You need to remove the tiny round nut on the end in addition to the hex nut. Slide the unit through the clock face and now work with the threaded rod. This is where a jewelers fingertips and a magnifying glass are essential. Slide the washer on the threaded rod, then tighten down the small hex nut. This anchors the unit to the clock face. Notice on the back of the mechanism is a small V shaped hanging bracket, orient that on top. Be very delicate in fitting the thin metal hour/minute hands as they will bend easy. The hour hand goes on first and presses onto the base. The minute hand is trickier, notice the cutout shape then examine the end of the threaded rod. You can't mash the minute hand on, you must orient it to the fitting on the end. After the hands are in place, gently screw on the tiny round nut. This holds the hands in position. Now press the second hand into the tiny hole at the tip, again be very gentle. Once all of this is done, put in a battery and set up the clock face with the correct time. If you do everything right, the second hand should be ticking away and the clock will keep excellent time. This is a wonderful unit that can be used to fix many battery powered clocks or you can craft a custom clock face and use that. My imagination went crazy thinking about the many shapes I could cut out with a jig saw and a nice piece of wood. You could really make a beautiful, personalized clock for someone who will treasure the unique gift that you crafted.

Hard to put together
I gave it a 3 because I could not get it to tell time. The hands are very hard to line up to work. After buying 2, I still haven’t got it working correctly. Not for the beginner.

Impossible to use
Can’t even put it together. The hands don’t fit on the mechanism. My husband had to literally force the AA battery into it. Absolute garbage. 0/10 would not recommend.

No size listed
There was no information on how big each clock hand was. I'm making a clock that is 11' diameter. I needed hands that would be more in proportion to the clock. After a month waiting to receive them, they're a little on the small side for my project.

Nonfunctional
I purchased this mechanism twice and returned it twice. It just doesn't work. Very poor design and the only brand they carry.

Easy to Install
I found a folk art clock that was really cute, but needed a new clock movement. The new movement was easy to install and so far is keeping accurate time.
