The clock is super tough. I had bought about 8 of them and sold them all within two months. Since VDO no longer makes clocks they are rare. I found another dealer in San Diego that had 10- but it was walk-ins /cash only. A bit far for me in Florida. He was a wholesaler and wholesale they were $47. List was $75. Second most expensive gauge next to the tachometer. I paid $75 for the clocks from the stash I found and was excited to find them.


Rod - like I said my gauge fetish can't compare....but I'm glad I know you and can learn from the master!

Sooner or latter, you will own a Correct Craft made boat that will need those gauges. I am sure.

Unicorn?

If you can find ones, used ones are messes..... try Rod for new. If he has one, I would expect around $100...... He is really the gauge whore, I am second-rate compared to him.

Geez, after reading my original post it sounds like I'm mad at Christine's about my order. Since I'm new to the forum, I should explain better. Just want to be clear, it was a perfectly fine experience. They were very helpful, and my order arrived very quickly. The gentleman I spoke to, told me the gauges should/might work. He was also upfront about not being able to return them. I said for that amount of money it was worth a try. I gambled and lost. No big deal. Anyway, love the forum, and Pete B was extremely helpful with my questions.

Sorry, no personal pics at the moment. If you go to christinesmarine.com these are the numbers, and mine look exactly like those. White gauges, black letters.

Sorry about that. They are Faria gauges. Here's the description from where I purchased them.


"Water Temperature Gauge
1990-1993 Replaces VDO
White Face, Black Letters/Lines"

"Fuel Gauge
Replaces VDO Gauge Used in 1990-1993
Correct Craft Boats
White Face, Black Letters/Lines"

To be honest, I don't know if they will work with a 1990-1993. But, I do know they don't work in a 1994 Ski Nautique. Well, they at least don't work as well as the other version I purchased.

Long story short. I bought new Faria fuel and temp gauges for my 1994 Ski Nautique. Well, turns out the salesperson was wrong. The Faria's are for 1990-1993 Nautiques, and did not fit my boat. I have the correct gauges now, but can't return the Faria gauges. If anyone wants them just let me know. I'll take a few dollars for them, otherwise someone can have them for free. They do me no good at this point, and I'd rather see someone have, or use them.
