Radio Controlled Movement (DCF)
This radio controlled movement will adjust itself automatically to the correct time. So you never have to worry anymore about summer or winter time, the clock will adjust itself. The movement is working with the DCF signal, what means that it is working for most European countries like The Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Italy etc (CET Time zone). For more information about the DCF signal, please read our blog post. Our radio controlled movements are almost silent, but will make a soft ticking sound. When you buy a NeXtime movement, you know for sure you don't have to worry about the quality. We are using high quality Taiwanese movements that are carefully selected to make sure your clock is always running in time for many years.

Are you not sure if this is the right movement, you can check the following things:
- Do you already have a NeXtime clock and you are buying a replacement RC movement? Please look at the back of your movement. Do you see the text: Blado DCF? Then this is your correct movement. If your movement movement looks different. Read the below text or contact info@nextime.eu.
- Take out the movement from your current clock and look at the shaft length. This movement has a shaft length of 12mm.
- To make sure your current clock hands fits the movement, you can measure the hole in your hands (where you attach the hands to the shaft of the movement). The hour hand must have a hole of 4.8 mm and the minute hand of 3,1 mm. (If you have a NeXtime movement that is looking the same, then you know for sure it will fit and you don't have to measure.)
