    Repaired Garant 5RD021 and Meister Anker 5RD016

    The Garant 5RD021 and the Meister Anker 5RD016 are almost the same flip-clock with the same problem : the three small plastic that keeps the tiles from falling were broken.
    I had to find a solution to recreate them and I finally decided to cut a part of the smallest serflex I had at home and to glue it.

    It works like a charm and both of the clocks are now working perfectly.

    That is a common problem with this mechanism. I had the same problem with a Gracia and also first repaired it using the tie-wraps, but found these a bit too stiff. I then changed it to some strips of rubber I had laying around: https://www.flipclockfans.com/forum/...unk-to-gem-ish

    Good looking clocks btw and nice to get a look inside.
    Thanks for sharing!
