On the clock, it has its own inline fuse holder that is probably blown. It usually blows as the points inside the clock the runs the winder stick. So you can try to put another fuse and see if it magically starts working. If not, you have to pull the clock and clean the points. Also it probably needs an oiling. If someone tried to jam in a larger fuse, that can create an overheat situation then the fail safe soldered strip inside the clock melts and breaks the connection. So that will have to be re-soldered.

Generally most of us have a battery disconnect switch of some type when we are not the car. So the clock would never me correct anyway.
