Best Answer

A clock is any machine used for measuring and indicating time. Clocks are stationary machines which cannot be carried or worn like watches. Clocks typically consist of escapement wheels, a circular numbered dial with hands, and sometimes may also consist of bells, alarms, and pendulums providing synchronous movement.
