OEM in dash clock, How loud does your tick?

[MountainGoat1966]

I finally got to the point I was ready to hook the battery back up in my truck after doing some work, and heard a noise I had never heard before.
It's the clock I installed in the dash.
OEM and boy, does the noise stand out.
Now I need a stereo to drown it out.

Ha! wish mine worked again

mine works and keeps time!! it also ticks loudly!

Mine is loud enough to hear outside the truck when its parked in garage. It keeps correct time too.

I hear mine outside the truck with the windows closed.
Being off the grid and closest neighbor a mile away and no traffic here, it's quieter than most neighborhoods so I guess noises seem louder.
I'll learn to live with it as long as it keeps good time and doesn't kill the battery.

I had a speedo shop convert my OEM clock to a quartz movement. It's as quiet as a fly walking across a cotton ball.

Must be a different flavor of quartz.

My clock says quartz on it.

I would prefer a quiet clock, but any clock is better than none I suppose.

I had a clock in my 77 VW Rabbit that sounded like a gearbox full of sand. But never one in the trucks.

I think there were two versions. I had one in my truck in which the second hand had a smooth sweeping motion that was quiet. I swapped it out for one I found that was in better condition. The "new" one has a second hand that stops on each movement and it is pretty loud.

The ticking on mine isn't too bad. I can't hear once I start the truck. Then again I can't uear anything when I start the truck.

mine is kinda loud but keeps time good i really never think about it but glad it works and is there.

[MountainGoat1966]

Is there an adjustment if it runs slow or fast ?
