It doesn't, necessarily, have to be about time:
"Clockworks, also known as clockwerks, are a type of technology created from gears, steam, and other simple mechanical devices. The most famous clockwork mechanisms are mechanical devices and automatons, including goblin shredders and the race of self-reproducing clockworks, the automatons or the devices use perpetual motion or near-perpetual motion to function over long periods of time without recharging."

I probably meant to comment on 8bithamster.
I'll pass.
I think i prefer our good ol' Tinkers.
I would say a Dragonsworn would be more likely than that.
