"Clock Knight" (クロック・ナイト Kurokku Naito) is an archetype of LIGHT Warrior monsters used by Lyndon in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime.
The "Clock Knight" monsters feature a clock motif, where each member of the archetype resemble the numbers found on a clock face from 1 to 12 and their original ATK and DEF are equal to their number x 100. This clock motif is further reinforced with their coin toss effects, which will increase their ATK by 1200 if it lands on "heads", but will destroy them if it lands on "tails". In addition, if more than one "Clock Knight" monster is on the player's field, the coin toss can be repeated.
Additionally, the "Clock Knight" monsters' original ATK and DEF and their 1200 ATK-gaining effects are based on a 24-hour clock system, a real-life method of measuring time based on the twenty-four hours of the day rather than being divided by two time periods of 12 hours, whereas the hours past midnight can be read to correspond with the hours past noon, added by 12 (e.g. 1:00 p.m. can be read as 13:00; 2:00 p.m. can be read as 14:00, etc.)
