How to time meditation without phone? (slrpnk.net)

Hi, I was wondering how people would time a 1 hour meditation session without setting an alarm on their phone.

I don't really want to keep my phone with me during meditation, but I do want to have a way to notice it's time to stop.

People somehow managed this in the past before phones existed right? So what would be a good way to do this?

Yeah, I think all the incense sticks that i've used are with a stick.
The reason I asked is because I have some indian incense at home and when they burn, the smoke stings my eyes. So I have to ventilate well, but then I don't smell much anymore.

Supposedly, the japanese incense (more specifically Kōdō incense) is supposed to burn cleaner and have less strong smoke. They are usually also very consistent.
