Product Description

The BQ3HTUS measures 2-1/8" w X 2-1/8" h X 5/8"d
Shaft Diameter is 5/8"
Threaded Shaft Length is 7/16"
Overall Shaft Length is 7/8"

One of the most powerful quartz movements available today, this US made Hi Torque movement has been designed with increased spacing between hour and minute hands to help prevent longer hands from binding, while also leaving enough room to accommodate the counterweights that are commonly used on large minute hands. This has long since been an issue on other movements, (such as the German version we used to carry) using very long hands.
Uses one "AA" battery for economy and compact size.
Please Note: Hi Torque hands are not included free with movement purchase. Please CLICK HERE to order hands ranging from 7" to 17-1/2" that can be driven by this movement.
