This was the kind of comment I was looking for when I posted this, I know there has to be some sort of reason for this, it seems too coincidental that they all stopped this closely, at different times, and they’re all the same brand of clock

The sub won’t let me post a video/gif, but they’re not fully dead yet, they just all twitch slightly out of sync

Exactly this! They'll probably work again when you remove the battery and put it in again, mine always does...

Sounds like a group of mental patients. 🤷🏼♂️

If they represent different time zones why are they all stopped within an hour of each other?
These clocks are quite mysterious.

They didn’t stop all at once. They stopped one at a time, but the second hand stopped at almost the same point each time

Yeah, but still...a one in 1728 chance they chose the same hour?
(My math might be wrong. Might be 1 in 144)

You can back calculate the required energy to overcome the moment arm to push the second hand to the 9o'clock position. If you wanted to...

If their batteries died, I suppose that's the point of maximum current draw to heave the second hand uphill.
