"Tomorrow is Yesterday" had William Shatner as the captain of the Enterprise, not Jeffrey Hunter.


That's true, Shatner was the Captain. but the question was about early digital clocks, not which episode it came from.. "The Menagerie" was the failed pilot for Star Trek and was integrated into a later episode. It never had a time readout. I can see where you were confused. We were talking about two different things. By the way, the pilot that sold the show was "Where No Man Has Gone Before." And in that one, McCoy wasn't yet cast. Paul Fix played the ship's doctor.

It was season 1, episode 19. "Tomorrow is Yesterday."

Clark Graham wrote an interesting series on this subject. "A Loop in Time." An experimental plane breaks the time barrier, and how they try to manipulate time and undo what changes resulted. Great three book series, available on Kindle Unlimited.
