try: http://www.chess.com/store/wholesale-chess

people seem to like them :)

also, here is a list of all major clocks: http://www.chess.com/equipment/chess+clocks 

i recommend you DON'T get an inexpensive clock if you can splurge and get a chronos! if not, the saitek competition clock is a good budget clock.

The Chronos is a great clock because of the face angle. However, I'm onld fashion and love an old school analog, big faced classic. I've only been on this site for a short period, but I have learned that Erik seems to be the "go to guy" for information and sage wisdom! Plus there is nothing like the sound of the human hand hitting the brass switch on top of a big wooden chess clock.

I have a Garde analogue clockwork chess clock (the wooden classic) and a DGT XL electronic digital chess clock (one of the newer top dogs acknowledged by FIDE).  Both bought at very good prices off eBay in England.
