The clock is completed!

Thanks to Jim Horn, Tinkercad and Shapeways. After measuring the original (upper left in first photo) Creating a cad file at tinkercad then exporting it to Shapeways, six new buttons were made by Shapeways in metalized plastic. They can print in aluminum but I am happy with the hard metalized plastic.

These are screw attached to adjuster cables under the case top. The only additional thing I had to do was drill the small hole in the inside cylinder for the threaded adjusted cables.

The buttons:

And the clock now half second out after 1 month (this error to be adjusted for):
