Analog clocks are like cursive, there isn't any real world benefit so it seems like we should spend that effort on one of the many other things that schools could teach.

Who need analog clocks?? Want the time use digital! Digital is to little use Millitary time? Millitary time is to small? Use UNIX TIME

The only thing i really use thats a dial/analog is calipers and micrometers.

Its like veirneer calipers, there just time consuming and inefficient to modern offerings

it's now 18:53, and while I respect that it seems nonsensical when parsed as a number, I find 1853 more convenient to write on mobile (and it does save two keystrokes on keyboard too).

Miss me with that "1-1=12" shit.
