I don't see any way to restore that and I don't see any reproductions out there. So I started looking for a clock to fill the hole. Most of the gauge companies only have clocks for 2-1/16" holes. Speedhut has a pretty good looking clock that is 2-5/8" (just a little bigger than the original hole) and the price is good at $79.95 . </div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_jy0hobvy0" alt="image.png" width="331" height="344" style="margin-right: 0px;"><br></div></div><div><br></div><div>The Smiths website shows best match to the original Tiger clock in the right size and it is listed as being for the Aston Martin DB5. </div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_jy0huvpu1" alt="image.png" width="543" height="145"><br></div></div><div>But the price is about $482.
