Clan, surely every 140 has a clock, must be a few about? Or have people converted them to a modern quartz movement? Anybody done this?
Not many failed ones ...
This fused link was playing up even when the 140 was still current . So any still around today would have been repaired a long time ago i would think .
The same mechanism was used in the small clock in 1970-72 models too .
