My dad has a clock that my grandmother owned until she died in 1997. It looks similar to this eBay listing:

My grandmother's clock was less ornate than this one, but looks similar enough that I'd say it's from the same manufacturer, Gustav-Becker. It's in Florida and I'm in Utah, so I'm going on memories here. I remember that as a child in 1970, it broke. A repairman was able to fix it, but he told my grandmother "it will run for another thirty years, then it will never work again". The finality of an assertion like that really stuck with me as a second grader.
Sure enough, a few years ago it stopped working. So I’d like to know.
Can you recommend a craftsman skilled with such clocks?
Why would a repairman make such an unusual assertion in 1970?
Is this still the case?
