Tom,
You must have a very early production clock. Does it have a 1972 production date on the back? All the 914 and 911 in 1973 went to the quartz movement.
Mark,
I'm going by the p914.com gauge info. the 73 & early 74 MY were Keinzles, see here:
http://p914.com/p914_gauges_clocks.htmA couple of "as original" early 73 MY 914-2Ls which I'm using as references have the Keinzle clocks.
I'm trying to correctly to "recreate" the center console/gauges that were originally in my early-73 MY 914S / 914-2.0 built 8/72 (Chassis no. for 8/31/72), which had been removed by the PO/OO &/or dealer when I bought it back in 1975 (I'm only the 2nd owner I'm pretty sure).
So I don't have a clock yet, but in addition to the above - the early 73 MY production apparently had some carry-over before they switched to the later gen parts (e.g.: early doors, mine has late front & early rear brake calipers, etc.), so even if 73 was the switch to Quartz Zeit - I suppose the early ones used the Keinzle clocks until the stock was depleted, or until the Quartz Zeits became available on the line.
So maybe I'll just hang onto the Quartz Zeit I got with that console just in case!!??
