Hechinger movement replacement

I have a Benchmark carraige clock which came with a Hechinger movement which played the Westminster chime. The clock body has a metal face which is fixed and not removable. The clock is 5" high, 4 1/4" wide and 2 1/4" deep. What movement can I use to replace the original?

You can take a look at chiming quartz movements, making certain to verify the overall movement dimensions against your inside case dimensions. You may also want to take a look at #12268 - which is the smallest chiming quartz movement we carry. I would recommend removing the old movement before ordering or selecting a replacement (as you will need to determine maximum dial thickness to determine which movement stock number - if applicable - you will select). You can always contact Klockit (with the existing case readily available for reference) for assistance with the process. If you do not want the movement to chime, then you could look at our standard quartz movements (which should fit the listed case dimensions).
