In 1665, Christiaan Huygens introduced the pendulum clock, revolutionizing timekeeping with its unprecedented accuracy. This innovation, however, disrupted traditional clockmaking crafts, rendering many older skills obsolete. The pendulum clock's precision also imposed stricter adherence to schedules, affecting labor patterns and daily routines. Communities accustomed to flexible time management experienced societal resistance and dissatisfaction, as the new technology clashed with established norms and disrupted productivity expectations.
