I can probably fix it. I rebuild these for $30 plus return shipping.

That's a better way to keep track of time. Those early clocks never
kept very good time. To get good time out of these you should
probably re-set them every morning, and they're not temperature
compensated. I can usually put them back in their original condition,
meaning that they'll run, but not particularly well.
The late clocks, starting in '71, keep much better time, but I can't
always fix them. I got Dennis's '72 working astonishingly well, but
that really came as a surprise.
