The hands of the clock DO NOT move "anti-clockwise."
If you look at the top sweep of the hands of an analog clock (from the numbers 9 to 3), it sweeps an arc from left to right.
If you look at the bottom sweep of the hands of an analog clock (from the numbers 3 to 9), it sweeps an arc from right to left.
The continuous sweep of the large hand (minute hand) demonstrates a clockwise sweeping motion.
The only ways a normal analog clock would appear to be going anti, or counter clockwise is:
(1) you are looking at it from a mirror, or
(2) you are looking through the back-side of a transparent clock and or wall
watching a "counter-clockwise" sweep of the hands
