Timing Motors are named for their application in electric clocks and other timing applications. The design of Timing Motors is focused on accuracy of speed and little else. Output speeds range from less than one revolution per day up to around 100 rpm. A typical value would probably be around 1 rpm. Timing motors, also called hysteresis synchronous motors, have very low torque. Bought new, they are expensive, but good deals can be had surplus.
Surplus suppliers are good sources. Some of them are H&R, C&H Sales, All Electronics, Marlin P. Jones & Assoc., and others.  See the sources page for possible vendors.
