Fixing a Quartz Clock

Tik Tok…

Clocksmith: All fixed. Ticking like it should. 

Luke: Nice job. Thanks. How much?

Clocksmith: Give me ten dollars for the quartz movement. 

Luke: You mean the motor? But your labor?

Clocksmith: It only took five minutes.

Luke: You know, the quote I had was $80.

Clocksmith: It is what it is. Some guys have to make a living. I’m retired, like to help people get ticking again. I get to feel like a real clocksmith.

Voice-over

Pretty simple. The package of clock hands might not be to your taste.

Recommend watching Robert Massaioli take the actual movement apart and explain it.
