Hello everyone,
I happened to get my hands on a NOS COPAL 227 in bright white, which I plan on using as my main alarm clock.
The clock makes a noise shortly before flipping the minute tile which I think is unusual, because I do own a few German-made flip clocks
which do not make this noise; thus I am asking here if this is normal for COPAL mechanics:
About 3 seconds before the tile flips, the clock makes a faint "tock" sound, followed by another one a second later and then finally the "flip".
The noise isn't loud at all, but I can hear it at night... "tock, tock, flip"
My other clocks, which are not made by COPAL, simply "flip" on the minute without any noise beforehand.
Any insights? Thanks
Alex
