It's "useless" in the sense that you can go to IKEA and buy a small, easy-to-read, reliable, accurate clock for $2.
Even though wooden clocks were once useful, this was not designed to accurately keep time but more to just be beautiful.

If anyone comes across a wood movment, don't use oil on the pivots, and bushing (usually just a smooth hole in a piece of hardwood.).
Just dust, and use graphite.
