When's the last time you bought a vehicle? :-) The last analog clock I saw was on my 1976 Olds Ninety-Eight. Every vehicle since then either had no clock or digital. I think the same can be said for my parents', siblings, in-laws, and friends' vehicles. Besides Infiniti and Jag, as previously mentioned, I can't think of any mfg who continued to regularly offer analog clocks as a kind of styling statement...maybe Porsche?
You're wearing polarized sunglasses. Tilting your head to the side a bit should let you see the clock. However, you started the thread by saying you wanted to see the time with the vehicle off...
Maybe the current crop of dashboard clocks aren't as well made as they used to be. I've used or seen a number of them over the years for my and other's econoboxes that had no clock at all. Obviously, YMMV. :-)
