      Hi, new member here! This is awesome. I had several family members work at IBM in the 70s and 80s so I'd be curious if they recognize this. I would be interested in this if they gave you a price.

          This is a pretty old post. I have no idea what ever happened to this.

            I have one of these IBM flip clocks. My dad was in the USAF back in the 60s and early 70s. He brought this clock home after one of his active duty trips probably around '73, I believe I remember him saying it came from an AFB in Newfoundland. I've been working on restoring it, the telechron motor was bad (dated 1967) and had it fixed. I've been looking for any information on these IBM flip clocks. It's all electro mechanical and has 3 lights bulbs, each one turning on every 15 secs and repeating itself every new minute. Anybody know where I could get parts for this clock - in particular I'm looking for one of the cam actuated switches that turns on one of the 15 sec bulbs? One more thing...how is this a slave clock? I don't see any method of connecting it to master time keeper.
            Thanks
