Its a common problem, there is a SMT resistor in the clock circuit board and one of the solder joints breaks, if you do a search on here you'll find it with some piccies. Or just take your clock out and have a poke about. I did mine a few months ago, 30 minute job.

If the joint is broken then surely the clock would not work at all. Not come on when it feels like it.
