I haven’t used a clock in years that I need to manually reset. Older people don’t seem to realize clocks on phones and other devices reset automatically.

My car’s clock needs manual resetting, so does my old radio alarm that turns on NPR in the morning. Coffeemaker, microwave, and oven all have clocks, and the wall clock of course. Most of these, I never use as a precise time reference, because they run slow or fast. They’re more for timing food or laundry, or counting the seconds while I grind coffee… Except one day I will glance and think I have a lot more time than I really do, so best to make sure they are at least close to correct.
Always remember: those run fast or slow because the company that made it was super cheap. Devices hooked to 120vac have a stable time reference.
