I know I won't be seeing the movie, so describe the clock.

How many more big sleeps?

The clock is built into what looks like a wall with numbers 1 to 59, which are the seconds. As each second passes, the relevant number lights up ....

..and 129 Big Sleeps...Wahoo.....!!!

Well, I searched high and low in my quest to find this monument, but to no avail...I asked a guy in a kiosk..and he thought I wanted to BUY a clock, and pointed me in the direct on Conways (is the man mad, has he not heard of you know where..?), halfway through the conversation A couple of NYPD officers walked passed, so I asked them...they hadn't heard of it either! The guy in the kiosk then had a brainwave had shouted out to me.."you want a lock..?" The rather bemused police officers walked off and left me to it!
I then approached a guy at the Bodies exihibition, with the opening line "Have you ever seen the film Big Daddy...?" The conversation went down hill from there!

Maybe next time!!

Hmmm, maybe a trek into a Blockbuster? Actually a teen-ager would have been the best person to ask I bet. Most likely they would have seen the movie, and are at the age of exploration of their surroundings.

Apparently the clock is in the financial district. This is taken from a website: "In a scene where Sandler is talking to the kid, they are passing through the Greenwich Village area. In the next shot, they are walking in front of a "clock building" (one side has the numbers 1-12 and 0-59). This building is located on John Street in the financial district, which is over 2 miles away." (http://www.moviemistakes.com/film156) <-scroll down til you see the word "clock"
