Are you from the US? I’m completely amazed that there are counties we you are almost never exposed to analog clocks. I’m from Europe and analog clocks are everywhere. Every train station, public buildings, churches, clock towers, homes, wrist watches. Heck we even have tons of (but more because of esthetics instead of serious time keeping) sun dials on walls (which the analog clock and the clock wise direction is based on - for the north hemisphere).
Many appliances/devices have digital clocks but that’s not because the are more modern/better but because they are way cheaper to produce and have less moving parts.
Seriously! I’m absolutely baffled by the comments here talking about how analog clocks are somehow this bizarre anarchism from the distant past that is just sooooooo difficult to understand. Wtf has been going on over there??
Mind you, they are the people who measure area in “stadiums” and the distance in “football field lengths” because they are too stupid to comprehend the metric system.
Dpes no one in Europe ever use object for a reference. Like it’s as tall the efifle tower, or that like running 3 laps around a football feild.
Of I were to say that America east to west would stretch from the straights of jerblarter to paar Istanbul. Does break their mind because they only understand km.

I’m from the US, but I’m currently a teacher in South America. Kids here are even worse at reading analog clocks than my students in the US were.

Europe has a lot more cultural attachment to their buildings as they have histories that go back a lot longer.
Murica, doesn’t and its part of why they have such awful car centricity.
The car lobbyists were basically allowed to design American cities.
Yeah the for a long timw the cheapest watches were digital ones. And omce led even old red ones you cloid make digital clocks very very cheap.
