A surprisingly popular choice is old mobile phones without SIM card:

Usually you can still use the alarm function, and there is good drive
current to the vibrator motor.

The missing SIM card would be the key here:  Without that the phone
doesn't set its clock from the  network.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
