How about the 12 hour numbers being fossils from successively younger periods.

Nice!

An idea if you can find a heavy duty clock assembly: have elongated fossils such as fish or echinoid spines be the hands.

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.

Also a lovely idea!

For my own watch, I would choose some Vaccinites... :DOH:.

These could even fit in a wristwatch! But it depends on species, of course :D.
