It should display the time too, because people might not know. And every business on the avenue will have a sign showing the same information. What a weird fad in hindsight.
I loved how when I was a kid, the clocks weren't in sync. They were up to 5 minutes off between them.
I hated that as a kid.
Also, my local pool has 3 clocks. The spinny cross one, actual time with seconds, and another one that counts down from 60 minutes, but it’s 5 mins off from the actual time with seconds, and the + spinny clock is also off between the two of them. Drives me insane.
How dare you call an analog clock a "spinny cross one."
Nah but it’s the special pool one. There’s four second-arms 15 seconds apart and colour coded, and then a single minute hand with no indication of the hour.
