The electric clock is also a standard fitting to the Phantom III dashboard. This one was not working despite all of the circuits testing properly. It was sent away to an expert horologist who reported that it was merely congealed oil in the movement that was causing its inactivity. The clock was cleaned and calibrated and now works perfectly. For those people who have such an instrument, it should be noted that the clock is started by operating the time adjustment knob, which then activates the movement.
The car was originally supplied with an electric clock, mounted in the wooden rail under the glass division in the rear compartment, but this was subsequently replaced by the unit pictured below, which is mounted in the top face of the cocktail cabinet. The clock probably per-dates the car. It was serviced by the same person who repaired the electric clock.
When mounted in the cabinet, the winding and adjustment controls are reached by swinging the face and movement forwards.
