baby ben question

I hope this is an okay question for this forum. I looked around and it seems ok. I'm on a desperate search to find a Baby Ben Twin Bell for my 82 year old grandmother (sounds a likely story, but a true one lol). Problem is I'm starting to thinking they don't exist. Does anyone know for sure?

If you haven't done so already, I'd recommend logging on to eBay and search under "Clocks". Once you're in the clock category type in Baby Ben in the search box. You could also try typing in "Westclox" as a category too. (they were the manufacturers of all Big & Baby Ben clocks). Perhaps someone has a model up for auction similar to what your looking for. Just off hand I don't know if the Baby Ben (or Big Ben, for that matter) ever came in a twin bell model, but I could easily be wrong. I know the Big Ben was available in what they called a chime model.

I am new to this forum and hopefully it is okay for me to post this information. I apologize in advance if there are rules forbidding it:

Sternreiter makes a twin-bell mechanical alarm clock almost identical to the old Ben series alarm clocks. You should be able to find them at several online dealers if you Google "Sternreiter alarm clock"

BTW thanks Klockit for starting a forum like this. I was considering starting one, but I like this one so much I will direct people to it instead.
