I had a clock radio in college (the 80's) with one of these displays, and it may indeed have been a Sankyo (the clock actually stopped working and I replaced it with an LED clock of far less quirky nature). Cool to see it again!

Cool. I recall the 'technology', and you're correct - it was cheaper to produce the mechanism than utilize LED's but LED's were the high tech look to sell. Interestingly the first I saw was backlit and displayed blue - 25 years before a cheap blue 7 segment LED was produced. However, I've never seen a battery operated model like yours. That motor will be easy to match close enough - the escapement keeps the time independant of motor speed. Worth repairing IMO.

I dont have the same exact clock but 2 days ago I got a clock with the same mechanism at a thirft store for about $2.50

One going for a few quid on ebay right now
-
Do you want to sell that? I'd love to try my hand at fixing it.
-
Nice! The clock was cleverly built at that time.
-
The numbers overlap to keep the size of the drums down.
-
Really nice mechanism.
