This desk clock requires a 1 7/16 inch mini clock insert. For those of you that don't have a source for these inserts I have listed a few places online below. I am not recommending any of these sources over the other. They are just places I have done business with over the years and had reliable service.The holes for these clock inserts are best cut with a forstner drill bit. The 1 7/16 inch inserts require a 1 3/8 inch hole. You can buy forstner bits to match the clock you are installing. Many of the clock insert sellers stock the forstner bits also.
The inserts are of different quality. The economy models are generally plastic with plastic lens and are okay for most projects. For a little more money you can buy the higher quality model with glass lens and metal bezel.
There are also two different types of mounting. Some use a rubber ring while others are friction mounts. My preference is the friction mount.
While you are shopping for the insert make sure the battery is included in the cost. You can also buy replacement batteries at the same time.
