I am happy to say that 109 of my 110 clocks are analogue. Several of them need to be wound up regularly.
Ironically, the only digital beast I have is the radio-controlled one I use to check the accuracy of all the others.

I only have two--both digital. One is on my radio. The other I am holding in my hand.

Now I have to count mine, of course! I've got one analogue on the kitchen wall, and six digital - laptop, mobile, fitness tracker, digital radio, landline handset and heating thermostat. I don't currently own a working watch (though that's what I use my fitness tracker for, I guess).

It's a bugger when summer time begins and ends.

I remember being on playground duty one afternoon when a little five-year-old boy came over to me and proudly said 'I've got a new watch, Mr Rover*'.
'That's nice, Robert,*' I said. 'What time is it?'
Peering closely at the screen, he slowly read out 'One, four, dot dot, nothing, seven'.
