My clock stopped on my 1987 300SDL.

Every dead clock I have seen of that vintage/style has
stopped because of dead electrolytic capacitors.  Getting
the cluster out and apart is the hardest part, we're talking
about $1 of new components and a bit of soldering here.

If you hammer the setting knob hard enough you can
break off a plastic axle pin.  I've fixed those with
a tiny drill and a bit of paperclip as a new axle pin.

To be clear: you don't need a different clock, just fix
the one you have.
