LC-531. I haven't used them in a clock yet, but I've salvaged 3 PFL type frequency meters, which gave me 21 tubes. 7 of them were dead from the start, 2 barely lit and start glowing properly only with supply voltage over 200V, next 5 have major poisoning, which I mostly healed... for now. So out of 21 tubes taken from lab equipment, which was always kept in reasonable temperatures and not used very frequently, only 7 were in at least good condition. The 1300h tube life from datasheet seems to be no lie, which is a bit strange - these tubes seem to contain mercury. At the same time, I've salvaged tubes from equipment in far worse condition (some stuff probably survived a flood) and good to bad tubes ratio was always way higher.
