Just got one of these in tonight. The cabinet held up well in shipping, but the clock, not so much. It's detached from the front of the cabinet, and I honestly don't see what was holding it on there. Anyone can help me with this?

Thanks in advance. Icon_smile

Does the last picture in the eBay ad help?

If not then Kirk has (or had) one:

Here's another ebay pic of the clock on a PT-69 I'm watching.
Cheers,

Mine isn't even attached to the metal bracket. It fell off of that, and, of course, ripped all the hands off on its way down. How was it originally attached to the bracket? Just some sort of adhesive?
