Other Forum members may disagree with me, but I would not call that guessing, I would call that definite knowledge.
But with no eyes on the clock (nor any visible, or mental, counts), that would be guessing, and guessing is not allowed by rule.
5-10-1: The referee may correct an obvious mistake by the timer to start or stop the clock properly only when he/she has definite information relative to the time involved. The exact time observed by the official may be placed on the clock.
5-10-2: If the referee determines that the clock malfunctioned or was not started/stopped properly, or if the clock did not run, an official’s count or other official information may be used to make a correction.
