Because that is the way the shadow on a sundial moves in the northern hemisphere, where clocks were invented. There must have been some desire for consistency throughout the years. Maybe you should invent a clock that moves counter-clockwise and see how well it sells to Aboriginees in Australia.
Clocks were designed to mimic the apparent motion of the Sun across the sky in the northern hemisphere, which appears to move from left to right. This is why clocks were made to move in a clockwise direction, as it was the most intuitive and natural way to represent the passage of time.
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
Clockwise direction is defined as the direction that the hands of a clock move in, which is from left to right.
Clockwise is the direction in which the hands of a clock move - from left to right. It is also known as the direction that is the same as the typical movement of the hands on a clock face, going from 12 to 3 to 6 to 9.
To effectively and safely use an ax, follow these steps: Choose the right ax for the job and make sure it is sharp. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the ax with both hands. Swing the ax in a controlled motion, aiming for the target area. Keep your body and hands clear of the swing path. Use proper technique to avoid injury and always wear protective gear.
Some clocks are battery operated, while older clocks have gears inside. you are right and theres a switch on the back to turn the hands:)
That means, the rotation is in the same direction as the hands of an analog clock or watch move. This is also known as rotating "to the right": if a circle rotates in a clockwise direction, then the upper part moves to the right.

Israel has always been located right where it is now, even before the Suez Canal was constructed.
It will collapse
Clocks keep time with the help of a power source, such as a battery or electricity, which drives the mechanism to move the hands at the right speed. The clock's gears and escapement system regulate the movement of the hands, ensuring that they accurately display the correct time. Sophisticated clocks may also receive time signals from sources such as atomic clocks or the internet to continuously adjust and maintain accuracy.
Home Depot has some great deals on wall clocks right now. They have a wide variety of styles to choose from. Target now has wall clocks at good prices.
Could it have anything to do with the fact that Moore always had a cigarette in his right hand?
well whe nthe clocks turn back the clock might say 12:00 but it looks like 1:00 so turning back the clocks is so were in the right time frame.
In the third floor bedroom (left) click the clocks above the fireplace. When they reach 12 o'clock (both hands up), a skull pops out. But the clocks are not showing the same times. The object is to get both skulls to pop up at the same time. Placing your mouse cursor over one of the clocks will speed that one up until you move it away. Get the clocks running close together, and when one is about to strike 12, speed the other one up to catch it. The lantern appears in the fireplace. You can get fuel from the barrel of kerosene in the basement.
Most people are right-handed, therefore we shake hands with our right (strong) hand.
The word right here is an adjective, always is an adverb (modifies right) and not is an adverb (modifies always).E.g. I am not always right.
