The clock on Mac is always shown in the menu bar and there is no way to remove it from the menu bar. By default, the clock displays the digital time in hours and minutes, alongside the date and day of the week. The clock module also doubles up as a button to open the Notification Center.

Perhaps, if you prefer to see seconds on the Mac clock then that’s possible. Luckily, macOS includes an option to show the time in seconds at the top-right corner of the screen. However, the clock’s seconds indicator isn’t enabled by default but you can easily toggle it on.

How do I show seconds in the menu bar clock on macOS Ventura?

Apparently, most users can’t find the seconds option for the clock after upgrading to macOS Ventura from Monterey or Big Sur. That’s because the interface to customize the clock settings in Ventura is entirely different than older versions of macOS.

Strangely, you won’t find the option to show seconds on Mac Ventura in the General > Data & Time section under System Settings (formerly System Preferences). The particular setting is now present in the Control Centre settings instead.

Nonetheless, this quick guide will help you display the time with seconds in macOS Ventura menu bar.

By showing seconds on Mac clock in Ventura, you can accurately see the current time in seconds in hh:mm:ss format. This comes in handy to count seconds on Mac, which is useful for timestamping and other crucial tasks.

Now let’s see how you can show seconds on MacBook Air or MacBook Pro clock running macOS Ventura (version 13).

  1. On your Mac, click the Apple logo at the top-left corner and open System Settings. system settings on macos ventura
