Qualified repairman for an antique clock... anywhere in the USA?

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

http://cgi.ebay.com/EXCEPTIONAL-Gustav-Becker-2-weight-regulator-wall-clock_W0QQitemZ190169689532QQihZ009QQcategoryZ13854QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

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?

you are not only looking for a qualified repairman , but you need an honest one...some of these people will take out your original parts and replace them with new ones and you will not know the difference. so ask around a lot and call there customers to see if they were satisfied. do your home work first......take pictures of the working parts and everything, look and record markings and numbers as far as where they are and what they are......beware ...they will use your old original parts for restoring old clocks or sell the original parts for big buck....my grandfather was big into collecting clocks and he new his stuff.
