Rittenhouse Service & Repair Forum

I have a very old doorbell/ clock combination. The Model # is 450. The chimes work but not the clock. Since it is installed into the wall is there one the will replace using the same insert?

The Rittenhouse door intercom answering system system was installed in 1978. It is not functioning well. Do you have a newer replacement for it that would still have the doorbell and intercom system? Does a new unit come with the exterior speaker?
