I wanted this to retrofit a clock that had stopped (& possibly do the same with other analog clocks in the house).To be clear, at this point the clockworks are doing great. Probably the best review was one with the warning to read instructions since you have to remove a pin to make it work. I would also suggest just handling the clock carefully & upright (in my case where I have pushed its boundaries).I am pleased that this movement is working given that the hands of the clock that I retrofit were longer. However, oddly enough, the problems were with fitting them onto the shaft.The issue is that I didn't want to use the tiny hands that came with the kit (it is obviously intended for making your own clock from scratch). So some of the issues are because I did not find clockworks that could be used for a retrofit.The movement set the time pretty quickly once it was together. This was a relief given some bad reviews & the issue with the hands. So, thumbs up. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars High quality clock motor. *by J***1 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 23, 2020* The Quartex Atomic Clock motor was easy to install. I had to enlarge the clock cavity to convert from a standard clock motor to the Atomic Clock motor, but after completing that the installation was simple because of the excellent set of directions included. The motor has selection switches for time zone and daylight savings. Having completed the installation, I pulled the zero orientation pin and installed the battery. To my delight, it did it's initial orientation cycle and homed in to the correct time within the first hour. What a treat to have an item that works like it's supposed to. I plan to buy more of these! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Works really well. Picks up time signal very reliably. Be sure to follow instructions and do NOT use lithium batteries. *by K***9 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 20, 2016* Works really well. Be sure to follow instructions and do NOT use lithium batteries.I really like this clock movement. It was fairly easy to upgrade my old clock and this thing does a really good job of receiving the atomic clock time signal - even though I'm on the outer edge of the continent (San Diego). I didn't have to carefully aim the clock towards Colorado - I just hung it in the usual location in an interior wall of my house and it picked up the time signal around 9:00 PM. I have an older digital La Crosse atomic clock that usually only picks up a signal every 3rd or 4th night.The instructions say NOT to use lithium batteries and they aren't kidding. I thought I'd try an Energizer lithium AA battery to reduce the risk of batter leakage and maybe get some longer battery life. That was a mistake - the movement started acting all wonky. I took out the lithium battery and replaced it with an alkaline battery and all is well. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/40633334-quartex-atomic-clock-movement-5-8-shaft-length](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/40633334-quartex-atomic-clock-movement-5-8-shaft-length) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
