The Chococlock

Is there anything better in the World that a clock that rewards with chocolate on the hour every hour?
Every single hour this clock presents you with a chocolate treat. Then, you need to snatch it off the tray before it closes back up again.
So if you don’t clock watch you don’t get your treat. And yes, there is a cheat button.
The main drawback is that the compartment can only hold 30 bits of chocolate which will last me about 2 hours on a good day. Though technically I guess this is 30 hours if you catch every piece of single chocolate.
