Try looking for a "Barber shop clock movement," which leads to (for example) this page: http://www.jknowles.com.au/shop/product.php?productid=16177&cat=261&page= 1 While traditionally used with a mirror image dial, so as to appear normal and operating in the right direction when viewed in a mirror, there is naturally no reason why you can't put whatever dial you desire on the reverse direction movement. Disclaimer: I have never dealt with the Jonathon Knowles Clock Company, so have no data to recommend for or against them. -- Andrew Erickson "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." -- Jim Elliot
