Where watch may display time, seemingly (2,3,4,2,2)
I believe the answer is:
on the face of it
'seemingly' is the definition.
('on the face of it' can be a synonym of 'seemingly')
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for on the face of it that I've seen before include "some of those climbing the Eiger may be seen here" , "Where over mountain one might see climber" , "Ostensibly (2,3,4,2,2)" , "Where you can see clock's hands" , "Where climbers may scale a mountain" .)
