Many people nowaday can't read clocks with hands, so if you want to sell to the mass, you need to take that into consideration.

- jeroenhd 1y agoWhile that's true, the numbers are still clearly readable and their position alongside a circle still makes a lot of sense. The alarm itself is also listed in digital time.

- riffraff 1y agoreally? I admit I don't deal with many youngsters, but I never met anyone who can't read clocks with hands, I think they may teach it in primary school here. This is deeply surprising to me.
- sokoloff 1y agoMy kids are teens. We have an analog clock on the wall in the dining room. It's shocking to me how many of their friends over for dinner (who are all on the "definitely not dumb" part of the distribution) either cannot read it at all or can read it only with obvious/significant difficulty.
- hopelite 1y agoThat distribution seems to have slid off the edge quite a bit
- jama211 1y agoEven if technically know how if you rarely see them it wouldn’t come naturally to you
- Biganon 1y agoI'm 33 and I need an embarrassingly long time to tell the time from an analog clock
- hopelite 1y agoOof … we are going to end up with nut jobs making videos about the alien technology of the circular disks, some with pointers, some with lines going around in circles pointing at an odd sequence of numbers for reasons we may never understand until the aliens come back to explain it to us. Teach yourself and children how to read clocks, people!!!
