Excellent intent of the question!
Well time does not move in clockwise or anti-clockwise, its the clock hands which move in clockwise direction.
If you say , time is moving in clockwise direction , then wher does time move in a digital watch ??? ;)
The hands of a clock move in what we now call the clockwise direction because shadows to the north of the equator, where modern clocks were invented and from where they spread around the world, move in that same direction. South of the equator, shadows move in the opposite direction, so if modern clocks had been invented in Argentina or Australia or South Africa and then spread around the world, then the hands of clocks would have moved in what we now call the counterclockwise direction - though of course that direction would then have been called clockwise.

It probably moves clockwise because sundials move the same way. Although I don't know why you'd want to make it run counterclockwise, it'd be rather hard to tell what time it is!
I think there are clocks out there that you can buy that do run counter (or anti, whatever you like to say) clockwise, but I don't know where you would you get them.

The device keep sells clocks that run in a counter-clockwise direction. a pal had one. i in my view got here across it fairly desirable, because of the fact it became right into a real attempt for the techniques to be sure the time whilst finding at it. purely is going to show how conditioned we modify into to issues being "usual"

Just build a clock that goes the other way. Time itself does not goclockwise; the the machine we use to tell time with.

Turn your clock around, so you look at the back of time.

invent a time machine and then make the time move backward.
