Let it just keep running, Usually it will take 12 -24hrs to get back on track with the correct chiming sequence

There has to be a way to advance the minute hand. If you can't adjust the hands on the face, try removing the back and there should be a way to make adjustments with the mechanism itself.
Good luck
I'll buy it off you for $20. Cash money.

Pendulum will not swing / wall clock repair
1. Have you wound up your wall clock and started the pendulum? Wall clocks have either a swinging pendulum or a balance wheel to regulate time keeping. If you don't see a pendulum attached to your clock movement, then your clock is regulated by a balance wheel. The pendulum/balance wheel is driven by a powerful spring. First, be sure that you have wound up the pendulum spring. Wind it up all the way. It is a myth that you can damage a clock by overwinding, unless perhaps you choose to attach a pipe wrench to the end of your winding key! If your clock chimes and/or strikes, and your not sure which arbor operates the pendulum, then wind them all up! Next, reach into the clock and gently swing the pendulum to one side with your hand. Your clock should now be up and running! Clockmaker's Secret:If your clock has a balance wheel, all you need to do is wind up your clock, and the wheel should automatically start ticking. You should hear a ticking sound similar to that of a mechanic
al wrist watch.
2. Are the clock hands touching? Touching hands are guaranteed to stop your clock! Look at the hour and minute hands closely. If they are touching, the movement will jam and the pendulum/balance wheel won't swing. Clockmaker's Secret: Try moving the hour hand slightly back and forth while pushing it towards the dial in order to clear the minute hand (but make sure it doesn't touch the dial!). If they still touch, you can bend the hour hand slightly back or the minute hand slightly towards you, allowing clearance.
3. Have you moved your mantel? The reason a wall clock with a pendulum stops swinging after being moved is because the clock case now leans at a slightly different angle on the wall then at its former location. Or, while winding, you may have moved the clock by accident. So, be sure that your clock is not ******** on the wall! Clockmaker's Secret: Wall clock movements are adjusted so that their pendulums swing properly when the clock case is level. However, over time clock cases warp, or the pendulum adjustment may be knocked out of kilter. So you may have to put away your level! Simply start your pendulum swinging, then listen carefully to the tick-toc sound. Push the left side of the clock slightly. Does the tick-toc sound seem more balanced? If not, push the right side. When you hear an even, balanced ticking, your done! Your wall clock should now be in perfect "beat". If your clock has a balance wheel instead of a pendulum, your in luck! You don't have to worry whether th
e clock is level at all.

Check the hands on the face. Normally they are just a friction fit. Remove the hands and put them back on for the correct hour when the clock chimes on the hour. This should fix the problem.
Normally, when setting a clock like this, never moves the hands backward. Advance the clock and let the chimes complete their sequence at each point where they chime before advancing the time again. To set the clock back when daylight time ends, just stop it for the hour instead of trying to advance the time 11 hours.
ADDED:
The site below has quartz chime movements but it says they give the full westminster chime on at all quarter hours. It also give the hourly chime on the hour. Check it out and see if it's a help.

Or wait until the weekend, put on a ski mask, pretend you are a burglar, and break into your office and steal it.
As you are making your getaway, accidentallly drop it into a tub of steaming, hot acidic, battery fluid.
Wonder's plan sounds much less complicated, don't you think?
* cries *
ha ha ha...are you sure they fixed it? maybe they made it more obnoxious. 4th of july is coming...i would set a massive destruction of black cats to it and then fire it off into outer space with some rockets....this way, we can all enjoy the show :)
I think that would work just fine.
Maybe you should "fix" it like a cat gets fixed!
Go for it!!!!!
Go for it;)LOL
no, why would you want to do that?
