    I wont guess how much because it was a while ago and prices of services change like the weather. Best bet is to give em a call and see if they can give you a ball park figure!!

    Was talking to a company in Adelaide yesterday called Gauge Works on Port Rd, Albert Park. (08) 8445 6644. Was discussing repairs and some of the quoted costs sounded very reasonable to me. may be worth a call.
    Nearly on the Road

    They are not temperamental. The diodes dry out and thats why they stop working. The diodes are about 5 cents each. There is maybe two hours work in replacing them. Thats unless there is a mechanical fault as well, but its always the diodes.
    The one in my WB has been going strong since 1984 by the way. So just goes to show that once again, WB really is the Worlds Best.

    It's an easy answer tie your clock up with fishing line and burn paraffin wax below the clock
