Do you mean the word “second” or are you asking for a device that measures time?

- If you mean the word “second”: a second is a unit of time (SI base unit), defined by atomic transitions of cesium atoms. It is not a device.

- If you want devices that measure time, common ones include:
- Clock (wall/desk)
- Watch (wristwatch)
- Stopwatch / timer
- Chronometer (precision timepiece)
- Hourglass
- Sundial
- Atomic clock (most accurate standard)
- Calendar (measures longer periods)

Tell me which you meant and I can give a definition, examples, diagrams, or history.
