The identical clock came with both Sonora bells and regular chime rods. Either will work. I have one of each, but people don't part with those too easily

I’m just looking for the face and bezel with glass would be even better.

If you are not comfortable doing the repair, why not find a competent jeweler in your area?

I have a whole clock I'll sell you. Movements are good, but need cleaning. It's a 5 bell. These don't seem as valuable as they were and there are several on the online auctions. I love the way they sound, but to me, they are hardly worth repairing and then trying to resell. I would think a jeweler could fix this. Having a background in jewelry, I would put some iron binding wire around the bezel and tighten it up to hold the joint tight, then use some 10k gold solder (flows at lower temperature). the other thing you could do, or have done, is to find someone (in the jewelry trade) with a laser welder. Using a similar technique as above. A laser welder would be perfect for this. There are craftsmen (and women) who offer laser welding as a service.

I have one I think. What is the diameter and what does the hinge look like?

Ok. I have one in a box in my storage area. It came off of a big tambour case with a five bell chime unit. I don’t think that would make a difference in the dial. I will look tomorrow and see if it is the same.

Ok thank you so much!

PS if you also have the glass with it that would be really helpful since I’m missing that too

Sorry, mine is 7 inches and is also broken.
