An ancient timepiece is a Zarosian artefact which is made by restoring the damaged variant at an archaeologist's workbench after the damaged variant is excavated from the Praesidio remains excavation hotspot at the Kharid-et Dig Site with level 47 Archaeology.

The artefact can be used on the cell controller north of the prison block in Kharid-et Dig Site to open the doors south-east of it. Doing so consumes the artefact and completes the mystery Time Served.

The ancient timepiece in the journal.
