The bump might well have taken something out of alignment or chipped a

been running slow or stopping because of worn teeth on the gears.
Might it be easier to simply replace the guts with a battery quartz
movement? Unless rare and expensive - if such a synchronous clock exists.
Or throw the whole thing away and replace it with a radio controlled
one?
That could rather go against the spirit of the owners, especially if -
as I thought probable - the clock is at MOTAT.
