Jaeger fleetwood 8 day clock

[steve36]

Ok I now know I need a jaeger fleetwood 8 day clock for 1936 caddy

Jaeger made lots of clocks and in various configurations. If you can not find the correct one possibly you can find one close to authentic and have a restorer do new graphics on the face. Also often they are converted to a modern movement. Hopefully someone will have the clock or one that can be converted to meet your needs. A picture would be helpful if you would be going that route.

Quartz movements can also be installed in your original clock if you have one, but they don't tick nor jump form minute to minute so if showing at a Cadillac LaSalle judged show you would lose a few points.

Good luck!!

Ah the joys of restoring classic cars eh?

Bruce,

You got me on the 38 Fleetwood 8 day clock.  In the divider there is a small square clock but it is electric.  Same for 38, 39 and 40 75 and 90 series cars.
