Any labels/markings on the clock?
If IT IS 230/240V then chop the plug off and bin it. Then fit a conventional UK 13A plug and away you go.

Just make sure its not a Del-boy clock which only tells Pakistani time 
which forign country ?
you have to make sure it is from a country with a suitable voltage (220-250) if it's from a country with a 110-120v supply you will need a transformer
otherwise yes you can just wire it to a 3A FCU
if it's european (europe is 220-240) it will probablly have what is nown as a europlug. this is a plug makde to fit most european sockets but not (officially) british ones a europlug has two pins which have a springy plastic part and a round metal tip they also have angled ends shape of the plug is like
p.s. it is possible to get a europlug into a uk socket if you use a screwdriver to open the shutters but i wouldn't advise it especially on a ring

Reminds me of the old pendulum clock we used to have, it was so old the shadow of the pendulem had worn a groove in the back of the caseing.!!
