Is my clock messed up?

There are minute and hour hands but is there supposed to be a second hand? There are some white pieces at the base of the dial but can’t imagine them to be the mangled remains. This is a factory clock and not one of the replacement versions.

Bummer man, yes it's broken.

There should be a hand in the small dial for the seconds and that indeed looks like it's remains at the bottom.

And I thought I got mine delivered after all the clock issues. I think this is the first time I have ever had a hand fall off of any time piece.

That is terrible. I'm glad we have the compass. Is this problem common for other Porsche models or is it a Cayenne specific issue?

My son bought a "Rolex" in Chinatown NYC for $10. Turns out he bought an inclinometer. Whichever way he turned the watch, the hour hand always pointed down.
