I've been trying to get a decent big-ish, clear to read kitchen clock without luck. I'm not close by an Ikea store. I did buy one from from Homefront and although the clock looked well, the cheap loud ticking mechanism was unbearable. Please see attached for my idea of a nice-looking clock. Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks

Homestore and More, The Range, Dunnes etc. I'm not sure how you'll figure out the ticking sound though.
Wayfair claims these are silent:

Most mechanisms are the same size.
I had a cheap and cheerful clock in my son's room and the ticking drive him mad.
It looked great though and I found a "silent" mechanism on Amazon for about €5.
Pretty easy to change and everyone happy.
You will need to be able to get at the front of the face to attach the hands but that looks easy on either of the examples you posted.
