Well— if I was going to spend the $900 or $680 I’d first try Max’s cleaning fix first.
Since I haven’t had mine apart, and don’t plan to, I don’t know how hard a fix it is.
Smelville, as a tech I can tell you that electronic devices don’t usually get better on their own. And when they do, it means there is no doubt a problem

Could be a faulty crystal and/or heat if parked in the sun.
Be interesting to know the voltage close to the clock, compared to battery voltage.

Good thing I have a clock or I might starve/eat junk food.
I plan my meal stops by it or I would just keep riding until I would desperately eat convenience store junk food.

They can be put out of their misery with an appropriate size hammer...but not while attached to a CB
I put an early ‘80s digital FM receiver out of its, and my, misery with a 3 lb sledge.
Yes, beer was involved, but it had to go!
Soaking them in used motor car oil requires less energy.
That's weird, 'cause I didn't think the '13 had a clock, but then, I don't pay much attention to the dash. The letters and numbers are too small, too hard to see and I prefer an analog watch anyway. The only thing I look at are those two big round things, and even at that, I've marked the speedo at 50, 75, and 100 MPH.
Talking about clocks and times , my sister in law has $ 6000 Rolex and I have a $ 40 Timex , they both show the same time !

Just goes to show, you DON'T always get what you pay for.
