Some clocks just have one hand and that’s the hour hand. So that is first… can’t be a clock without an hour hand. Then the second most important hand is the minute hand. Some… only some… clocks also have a hand to count the seconds… and called the second hand… but it’s the third hand if you count the order of importance
