There were clocks and watches in the 1800s.
Watches then were bulky compared to the ones today, and you would carry them in your pocket. They were powered by a metal spring, and you would have to wind them to keep them running.
Clocks of the day generally had pendulums that would swing to keep the time. They also had to be wound about once a day. Some had a spring. Winding would coil up the spring, and the workings of the clock would be driven by the spring unwinding. Other clocks had a weight on a cord wrapped around a spindle. Winding would rais the weight, and as the weight went back down, the spindle turning drove the clock.
There were also sundials that showed the time by the angle of a shadow, as the sun moved from east to west.
