Throughout  ''[[The  Sims  (series)|The Sims series]]'',  '''clocks'''  were  featured  as objects. With the exception of alarm clocks, clocks usually served no real function. Some clocks in ''[[The Sims]]'' expansions and all clocks in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' are animated to be in synchsync with the real in-game [[time]].
 
Alarm clocks were first introduced in ''The Sims'', and would automatically wake Sims up two hours before their carpool arrived so that they would have time to get ready for work or school. Alarm clocks were reintroduced in ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', and function similarly to those in the first game. These can only be placed on end tables.{{confirm}}

While clocks in ''The Sims 2'' indicated the correct time, the hour hand's animation wasn't realistic, and would remain in the o'clock position all through the hour.

|Pointer Timepiece Clock
|§85
|1x1
|Back in the old days, before they were integrated into every other thing, the things that told time were actually stand-alone objects. But they didn’t just display the current time. These objects had a ring of numbers, and little pointers that slowly rotated around and literally just pointed at the numbers you were supposed to be looking at that second. They were powered by black magic.

|It's easy to lose track of time on a submersible, so Princess Cordelia designed this clock to create some order in her days. Unfortunately, it was still impossible to tell day from night, so she gave up and fed it to a kraken. Today, land-dwelling collectors find it much more useful.
