Marble can be resurfaced to bring out the shine again and smooth it !!  Just google "marble restoration" and see if there is something that might help you !!  Its usually just a sanding and sealing !!

There were probably originally three pieces, and the garnitures have probably been separated from the clock over the years. If this is the case then the value will be decreased. Value is what it will fetch on the day at Auction; if you look at this one, had an estimate of $150 - $200 but only reached the lower estimate.
