A better clock using 20 Meccano parts, not including nuts, bolts, washers and Spring Clips, for the Christmas 2011 challenge, run by the online Meccano group 'Spanner'. Using a traditional Foliot & Verge escapement, the running time is much improved. Most of the parts are readily available. The escapement wheel has 11 teeth.

The parts listed at the end of the video should read: 15, 15a, 16a (two), 19b, 26 (two), 26c, 27a, 27b, 27d, 32, 51, 52,
126, 146a, 187, 213, 548, Clockwork Motor. Originally I forgot to count the Worm Gear, part no,32. In order to try to stay within the 20 part rule, I've now used a 3 1/2" Elektrikit Pivot Rod, part 548 in place of part 549 in the escapement, and also replaced the 3 1/2" Rod with the previously discarded 1 1/2" rod supplied with the Clockwork Motor. It still works fine.
