Think about when the last time you used a wall clock or even a public clock pole/tower or something. My brain doesn't even register them anymore, I just look at my phone and reset brain to whatever magic hand box says.

To think there used to be a time where you had to physically go outside and look at a clock tower if you wanted accurate ish local time

the ticking was too damned annoying.

If you still have the clock you can get a replacement "sweep" movement instead of the more common "step" movement.

You can buy them online from all sorts of places for ~15 dollars, e.g. clockshop.
