Vestigial holes for winding keys. One hole used to be the winding hole, a second was an hourly chime (that wouldnt sound if you didn't winding it and just wound the clock mechanism) and sometimes a third for a chime every 15 mins. Wouldn't be surprised if this one had a button on the back or inside the housing to turn on an hourly chime.

White was a good choice. Can't go wrong with white.

Sure you can go wrong with white, this is how I found the clock, on the side of the road...

The clock works great, I just figured it needed some contrast.

That is terrible, and definitely the reason it was in the side of the road. Way to fix it up and give it new life!
A fully white background (as in, literally nothing, just plain white, no numbers) would be much better than whatever that was...
You did the clock a favour.
I’m subscribed to some art feeds and I thought this was a very very good painting of a clock for a minute
It looks good OP
The arms were white or the numbers were white?
