Look at your cell phone or watch for time?? Didn't know anyone really used the clock. For anyone that uses a battery cut of switch it would become never ending

I don't think that's possible unless something is manufactured incorrectly in the clock. The only possibility I can think of is it is losing power intermittently and not when you're looking (at the second hand). Like during the night, for example. I don't know what you mean by the hour hand losing time. How much time and over how long a period are we talking?

took it off and squeezed it a little to fit on it right place just a little higher
Thanks everyone
