This saying never made sense to me. Sure, the clock is correct a couple times each day but I don’t know that because I already got rid of it and replaced it with a working clock.
“broken” and “stopped” are not the same thing. that’s why “even a broken clock…” doesn’t make sense. the wording should be “a stopped clock”
a “broken” one could just be a little “fast” or “slow”, spinning erratically, or otherwise inconsistent and unreliable, and rarely (if ever) report the correct time.

That’s fine but I don’t listen to a stopped watch tell me what time it is either.
