David,

An inexpensive way which I've done in the past is to buy another Tymeter Numechron clock and just replace the wheel with one from the donor. I did that with an SC-101 a couple years ago. I've found clocks on eBay for less than $10 at times. The main difference is if you need the 12 or 24 hour wheel and the clock motor which vary among models.

Dry transfers would also work well too and may be just as economical.

I also learned the hard way once when I "cleaned" the rear glass with Windex on a SX-99 and the nice red letting just floated away.

Does anyone have an idea how I can replace the larger numbers on the clock. 
There are two numbers that need to be redone after they were removed with
ordinary window cleaner - live and learn!  I was thinking of dry transfers. 
Perhaps, someone knows the font size, etc. And has done this before.

Thank you
