It is like a stake through the heart when our clock guy sees an pretty antique case with some modern battery operated clock mechanism in it.

I can PM him you his contact info if you really want to talk to a pro. Likely it is not really worth the postage unless it is a rare brand and the parts are usable.

Our pro goes to clock conventions and buys and sells parts so the parts are not the rare. Especially with so many antique dealers gutting the movement and putting in battery operated movements.
