So when the clock responds to her question, that's actually invisible Dumbledore?
No. It's just a clock. But it is there, so Dumbledore knows at which point in time he should jump back to (given the option of course) {all this is an interpretation of loserthree's post}
I meant, if whenever she queries the clock for the time, Dumbledore will have arrived already, then there was no need for him to enchant the clock further to respond to the query - he could just answer it himself, since he's already there.
That may fall under the don't-mess-with-time injunction. Easier to just be silent and let the clock do its job.
