If you're taking some of the works out, you should be able to fit a quartz
movement to the minute hand and drive the clock that way.  You keep everything
in view, including the hand setting.  I will make my '72 clock lash-up into a
permanent mod and take pics, some day when I feel bored!   Now, where did I put
all that stuff?  ;-)
