Why do watches turn clockwise?

Time keeping devices usually rotate clockwise because they traditionally emulate the direction the shadow of a gnomon revolves on the brass plate of a sundial in the northern hemisphere.🧭

To calibrate the dial depends on your geographical latitude of your location. You need different sundials, depending on where you are on Earth. 🌎

Also you must always ensure that your device {the 12:00 🕛 position} is pointing due North.⬆️The gnomon itself is historically tilted upwards indicating the position of the North star in the sky.⭐️

Note that if you are ever facing the sun 🌞 in the northern hemisphere, it is never North!
