Ah, "Analog clock", such a wonderful retronym.  Like "Acoustic guitar"
or "propellor airplane".  

I did once see a true analog electronic clock, though.  A fellow down the
hall at MIT who built instrumentation systems built one 
just for the hell of it.  It was a very large, very low 
leakage polystyrene capacitor, a glass-cased resistor (100,000 Megohm, as
I
recall) and a very high quality instrumentation amplifier, connected
as a standard op-amp integrator.  The amplifier output drove a large
panel meter, with markings from 0 to 24 hours, plus a precision comparator
that reset the integrator whenever the output reached 24 hours....

He also had a Minuteman I guidance computer hooked up to an ASR-33 as
his personal computer....
