A clock requires cyclic moving parts but time is part of them.
Time flows over these moving parts in space. That is how time is in a
clock.
If time were not in a clock a clock could not measure the time
flow property.

Every once in a while I feel I must repeat: DO NOT MASTURBATE THE
TROLLS.
Controll yourself and never answer him!

Time is not a physical thing. Time is a social construction used to
measure the motion of the earth around the sun, much like money or the
theory of human races.

that there is more to it than we thought. See the 2nd law of
