Both varieties of clocks have their benefits and faults when comparing wood clocks to metal ones. The actual casing of the clocks would be the major difference and assuming they are in the same type of environment either or would last the same amount of time. The inner workings of the clock and what makes everything tick would be the major decision maker of what makes one clock last longer than another. With professional upkeep of the clocks being taken care of it really depends on how they treated throughout their lifespan which will determine the capacity to how long they will work.

Sounds can last longer due to factors like the physical properties of the vibrating object or medium producing the sound, the amount of energy driving the vibration, and the environment where the sound is traveling. Sounds with more energy or produced by objects with slower rates of damping will typically last longer than sounds with less energy or produced by quickly dissipating vibrations.
