Any way to zero out an hour meter? Other than connect it to a power supply and run it forward for a bunch of days?

Rob,
And just what is it that makes you think you haven't now approached the

It's a Quartz one - like the one Gene provided the link to except it doesn't

Hopefully it's like a Timex - "Takes a licking and keeps on ticking!" ;-)
