You could try listening with an electromagnetic pickup, like the ones we
used to stick on telephone handsets to record conversations.

Interesting: trying to "hear" a low frequency crystal using a microphone...
it should be hard: the crystal has to make the case vibrate and this is
energy consuming (unless it resonates). I don't expect to pick up nothing,
except the step motor driving the hands.

I have a $49 Casio Wave Ceptor, white face black numerals, analog hands

can discern when comparing to WWV @ 10or 15 Mhz.
Has anybody "listened" to such a watch? (with a microphone)
Can you hear both the 32KHz basic timekeeping as well as the "tick" when
the
second hand takes a step?
