E-bay and others sell these little build yourself C51 3 - 5 V electronic clocks. Currently at time of writing they are £1.67 inc Post so I got one to play with. I made one and wanted a little case for it so I knocked one up in Tinkercad.
It's not perfect and maybe if someone was more finicky than me they may want to use the STL model I have included to move the holes for the setting buttons 1mm to the right along with the buzzer 1 mm up (or put a small grate across the hole, I don't know).
I removed the connector block from the component board as this stuck up too much and just soldered two wires to the back for power and left holes for these to come out the back. Maybe another version could have 2 x AA battery compartment or a slot to fit a USB connector (I don't have any at this time although when I do I may add this). Anyway at this time the wires stick out and I was thinking of just soldering these to a cut off USB C for power from my computer.
