I would try to get some money back since it is not as described and like you said, it will cost you a lot of money.  See what he says.

Hi Guys

Just a quick update. I took Glen's advice and over the weekend, inbetween that thing that puts the bread on the table (Work)  took the clock to bits. Re-wired it and "fiddled" with the motor and, kingers crossed it has worked since.

Have sourced new glass and bezal but I think i'll keep it as it is. A bit worn round the edges but original.

Thanks everyone for your kind advice.

Dave

Well that clock looks pretty good now Dave! . Really no need to replace a glass unless it is cracked or broken.
        If the seller had it lit up like you do, in his auction............... he would have got a lot more bids and a lot more money $$$         You scored Buddy  '<img'>
