In the old days before crystal clocks were accessible, wall-mounted clocks could be driven by synchronous motors that were synchronized to the grid frequency. Basically, Time switches still use this principle.
I did not want to modify the clock permanently or have a big rebuild, just to fit the motor. The most e
