A clock is an instrument used to indicate, measure, keep, and co-ordinate time. The word clock is derived ultimately (via Dutch, Northern French, and Medieval Latin) from the Celtic words clagan and clocca meaning "bell". For horologists and other specialists the term clock continues to mean exclusively a device with a striking mechanism for announcing intervals of time acoustically, by ringing a bell, a set of chimes, or a gong. A silent instrument lacking such a mechanism has traditionally been known as a timepiece. In general usage today a "clock" refers to any device for measuring and displaying the time. Watches and other timepieces that can be carried on one's person are often distinguished from clocks.

"spun" off from my motherboard clock, I decided to turn an old hard drive into a clock too. It originally had two disks, but the clock wouldn't have fit, so I just used one. It's on my wall next to my motherboard clock; the original idea was to "connect" them via an ide cable, but the plug on this is no longer there...
Anniversary clocks are torsion pendulum clocks that have to be wound only once a year. The pendulum of an anniversary clock rotates horizontally and is twisting back and forth instead of swinging. The mechanism of these clocks is usually exposed under a glass dome which makes them collector's items for enthusiasts. Unfortunately, I could never get this one to run for more than an hour or so!
