Clocks, Watches/trend clock

Question
Recently we were given a clock which says "Trend Clocks Zeeland Michigan" on it.  I read a previous question which stated that they were purchased by Sligh, and then quite making clocks in 2005.  Ours is a "baby" grandfather, standing about 2 feet high.
Problem: no key!  It's too small for my nut driver set, and I don't think I have a socket that small.  Any suggestions?

Answer
back of the mechanism will indicate mfg and 3's to ID the particular mechanism. German movements are either 4mm keys - 95% are. or 3mm keys for round plate small movements. Any clock shop will have them
