Taking off the chrome bezel is not for the faint of heart. You will most likely trash the bezel in appearance.
If I were you I would remove the clock and send it to N Hollywood speedo and have it changed to a quartz internals.
They will return it spanking new in appearance.
And it will run with the correct time.
I personally deleted mine and have a O.P and Voltmeter in that space at present. And it looks like factory installed!

Tempting. Mine runs, but runs a little hot and gains 15 minutes a week.
There is a tiny adjustment screw on the back.

Save yourself a hassle send to No Hollywood and change to quartez. They did mine very happy.

Steve, pictures please...
I have a working clock but need to install it.
On a separate note, is it legal in the USA to have a speedo and odo reading in kph/km? This for my bike. As in their cars, BMW bike speedo/odo units had the disintegrating gears. I have replaced the gears in my daily driver bike, but the entire unit on bike #2 is kaput and disassembled for practice. It was left outside, water got in through/around the glass face, and rusted the internals. Not much I can do about that!
TIA, all

HB CHRIS is correct. There is a screw to adjust on the rear of the unit.
I have taken out my clock and know that I wouldn't do it just to adjust the clock.
TOO much work. Plus it is still 40+ years old and may need adjusting several times in the future!
If anyone wants to install a OP and volt meter you will need to use a gas/temp gauge. The clock can is too small.
N Hollywood will add new face and can mount the gauges vertically or horizontal(mine). Will come back with clean glass and face plate. Looks new!
I was very pleased with their work, and price was reasonable.
I have heard nothing but praise for their clock repairs also.
