Well, the clock repair guy looked at it and said he really didn't want to get into the mechanism as it would be quite a job.  He believes that one of the gears in the time resetting mech is frozen and it needs to be disassembled and perhaps even a new part fashioned.  So, I put it all back together, refinished the cabinet and my wife found a spot for it to sit.  I'll plug it in at the right time and be done with it for now.
