The Clock Shop of Vienna
We opened our doors in 1975 as a family business with a few very talented and skilled clockmakers. We love clocks and we love what we do.
We selected only the finest time pieces to place on our floors and have been a part of our community ever since.
It’s the mid 1960s and I’m stepping into this torture chamber …

"After hanging the clocks throughout your home, talk to your kids about time, and do it often. Ask them questions like: “If we have to be there at two and it takes us 15 minutes to get there, what time should we be out the door?” Eventually, they’ll no longer require your prompting."

Why Kids Still Need Analog Clocks Last year, in an unscientific exercise, Jimmy Kimmel’s team showed some kids a traditional clock and asked if they could read the time on it. It did not go so well.
The Clock Shop of Vienna would like to go on the record in support of keeping time.

We’ve built our lives and societies around this periodicity, with days that are divided into hours, minutes, and seconds, all kept track of by clocks. But in some places on Earth, the Su...

Why Is NASA Sending an Atomic Clock Into Space On June 22, NASA will send an atomic clock the size of a football (though much heavier) to space onboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.

“Time is a long line,” he said. To the left lies the past—the dinosaurs, the big bang—and to the right, the future—the unknown. “We’re sort of here,” he said, hanging a carabiner on it, as a marker for the present.

British schools are replacing analog clocks with digital ones to help clueless students
https://wapo.st/2HMZekN
Analysis | British schools are replacing analog clocks with digital ones to help clueless students British teachers recently tweeted that schools are changing the clocks, sometimes in rooms where important exams are taken, so students don't waste time asking how much time is left. But plenty of American children can't read analog clocks, either.
That time of year already? Whew!
