    Dear All,

    How does the original Veglia Borletti clock for 250 Gte S3 look like? I have seen different ones. Some have the wheel to set the time at the front, some have it at the side, meaning adjustement is done under the dash.

    Some have Veglia some Veglia Borletti written on it. Some have the inscript on top, others at the bottom.

    I need to find one and would like to know what is original and what not.

    Thanks a lot.

    Christopher

    Any pictures for the clock of a S3 appreciated! From the info I have it should be a electro-mechanical clock which winds itself and has no external winder, just a small knob for setting time.

    Thanks

    Ealry S.3 cars still had the old version. A different type of electronic Veglia seems also have been used briefly.

    Thanks for posting the right one. That is what I figured out from photos, only Veglia script, not Veglia Borletti. Know I know how the backside looks thanks to turbo-joe. Will look for one in Padua in October. If someone has one for sale like this at a sensible price please let me know. Thanks a lot.

    Sorry turbo-joe,

    just saw your official reply. Yes, there is a good market starting Friday this week in Padua. Auto Epoca... worth visiting for those seeking parts.
