THE clock is the watch on your own wrist.  By using that, plus receiving 
messages from some distant person, plus some elementary calculations on 
your part, you can determine the current age of that distant person.  A 
brief description of how to do that is in

  https://sites.google.com/site/cadoequation/cado-reference-frame

and a more detailed description (giving the actual messages and 
calculations required) is in

  "Accelerated Observers in Special Relativity", PHYSICS ESSAYS, 
December 1999, p629.
