I have a 1974 Hamilton "Paddington" 31 day wall clock, for which we have lost the pendulum. I took a flier and bought a random one for it, but it is apparently the wrong weight or the shaft is the wrong length, or both. So, it will not run. The movement is Japanese and it has no jewels nor any model number or serial number on the back plate. The wooden case is approx. 8" by 8" with wooden scroll work both on top and below. HELP~~

You adjust the time by moving the weight up or down the shaft so it may well work, no clock will keep time just because of the length of shaft or the weight on it.
