Question
Hopefully you can tell me what the part is called that attaches to the chime tune selection lever so that you can change the tune from the front of the clock. Can't seem to find a picture of one. It just attaches to the lever with a pressure screw the through a slit in the dial.

Answer
Frank, the entire arm is called the Chime change lever.  The piece that attaches to the arm with the screw is called the Chime selector. If you need one please give me all of the numbers stamped on the back of the movement. I can help you find one.
