Abstract
We reconsider the status of the so-called second clock effect in Weyl gauge theories of gravity, which are invariant both under local Poincaré transformations and local changes of scale. In particular, we revisit and extend our previous demonstration that the second clock effect does not occur in such theories, in order both to clarify our argument and confirm our original findings in response to recent counterclaims in the literature.
