The 24-hour analog dial continued to be used, but primarily by technicians, astronomers, scientists, and clockmakers. John Harrison, Thomas Tompion, and Mudge [7] built a number of clocks with 24-hour analog dials, particularly when building astronomical and nautical instruments. 24-hour dials were also used on sidereal clocks.
A second type of clock face is the 24-hour analog dial, widely used in military and other organizations that use 24-hour time. This is similar to the 12-hour dial above, except it has hours numbered 1–24 (or 0–23) around the outside, and the hour hand makes only one revolution per day.
The Slow watches company was created by Corvin Lask and Christopher Noerskau, with Swiss watch designers Gabriele Guidi and May Margot as partners. [5] [6] They began development of the company in 2011 and opened for business in 2013. [3] Lask and Noerskau wanted to create a watch that would remind people to appreciate their available time. [7]

An Italian 6 hour clock was developed in the 18th century, presumably to save power (a clock or watch striking 24 times uses more power). Another type of analog clock is the sundial, which tracks the sun continuously, registering the time by the shadow position of its gnomon. Because the sun does not adjust to daylight saving time, users must ...
The Clock is a film by video artist Christian Marclay.It is a looped 24-hour video supercut (montage of scenes from film and television) that feature clocks or timepieces. . The artwork itself functions as a clock: its presentation is synchronized with the local time, resulting in the time shown in a scene being the actual t
The first works in the series were launched in April 2009. They consist of videos in which sweepers move around trash to create the analog clock hands ("Sweeper's clock"), [1] a person behind a translucent screen paints a digital clock, and grandfather clocks in which a man behind a screen paints the analog hands.
