Alarm clocks have come a long way in 200 years. One of the earliest alarm clocks is on display at the British Horological Museum. One of the earliest alarm clocks made in 1800. You come back home, then press your pocket watch into the center, adjust the lever to specify the hour you want to wake up and the rotating square at the back of the watch will trigger ringing the bell. Also, by pulling a string, you could make it ring out the quarters and hours, very useful when its dark at night.
