Wall clocks

about

Clocks are always in a hurry or delayed, but they rarely show the correct time. Of course, in the physical sense, there is not much sense in exact time, since time is relative. The ticking of the wall clocks is the most definitive way of interacting with the outside world. Often the only enemy of silence is the wall clock, which keeps you awake at night in a strange place. The loudness of a wall clock is a good indication of the state of mind of the person listening to it. Some people are annoyed by the slightest ticking, but are really stressed by their financial problems. The most glaring case is the cuckoo clock, which lets everyone know the time at dawn. Wall clocks have always been mainly decorative, decorating homes instead of paintings or photographs, so they were not much concerned with the often loud and annoying ticking sounds, and especially not with showing the exact time. Today, many wall clock manufacturers consider the silence and lack of ticking to be a virtue of their products. But let's face it, a wall clock without audible ticking is not a wall clock.
