I also wish there's a way to set a digital clock SOMEWHERE on it's huge screen. In some light, the analog clock's hands are difficult to read. Maybe because the driver is reading it from the side, it's more of a problem for shorter drivers. Also, the height of the clock is too low.

Many people in the world, myself included have watches that are analog...and we can tell time on them. I learned how in kindergarden How did the world ever survive before digital clocks?
yeah but it gets set back after time. You set a time and like 2 weeks later it gets set back by like 5 min or something. Not a great analog clock. Forgot to add that in my first post

I havent seen this what so ever. I do change setting twice a year for winter n summer time. Its lovely to withhold. But then I use analouge wrist clock as well. So maybe there is something else here.

How will we know what "counter-clockwise" means. Waddya mean by "bottom half of the hour"?...
Big hand/little hand...Lost culture with digital displays.

As luck would have it, the LS gets "mo betta" goodies of course. And, I am guessing, as you cross time zones, the clock resets itself accordingly.

I have also never had this issue. Its an electronic clock, it should keep time like any other electronic clock.
