Relojero
Explanation:
El clock-fixer es un relojero.

I got home and checked my email, the clock fixer had already sent me a detailed report on my clock, including an estimate for repairing it.

I have a nice Seth-Thomas mantle clock that needs help. Three years ago we took it to the Clock Doctor in the Trenton Farmers' Market, who charged a lot and said he put a whole new German movement in. Any recommendations for a good, and reasonable, clock fixer?

agree  Leopoldo Gurman: "boolean: Booleana. Símbolos utilizado para la relación entre términos matemáticos...". Por lo que vi del texto (marketing, stands de venta), se trata de un producto, probablemente ficticio, no de una persona
