The frame includes a central island positioned within the outer perimeter. The movement also includes a minute hand and an hour hand mounted on a central arbor integral with the frame. The movement also includes a motor having an electromagnet that extends outside of the outer perimeter of the frame in a radial direction from the central arbor.
