Default Wall clock: loud movement

My new kitchen wall clock (battery-operated) seemed a bargain at =A34.99
from PoundStretcher. But once I put it up, the "tick" was very loud!

Any way of quietening these el cheapo wall clocks? Foam round the back?
Would removing the second hand make for a quieter tick?

Or should I just pay more for a clock with a quiet movement?

Bruce
