- La Torre del Reloj de la Secundaria China (en inglés: The Chinese High School Clock Tower Building literalmente "Edificio de la Torre del Reloj de la Escuela Secundaria China") se encuentra en Singapur en lo que hoy es el campus del Instituto Hwa Chong integrado tras la fusión de la Escuela Secundaria china con el Hwa Chong Junior College el 1 de enero de 2005. Levantándose a unos 31 metros de altura sobre una pequeña loma en la que partes del campus fue construido, se terminó en 1925, algunos años después de que la escuela secundaria china abrió sus puertas en 1919, y sirvió como un hito imponente para el área de Bukit Timah donde está rodeada de urbanizaciones privadas de relativamente poca altura. Fue utilizada en algunas tácticas militares durante la Guerra del Pacífico en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. (es)
- The Chinese High School Clock Tower Building, a gazetted national monument in Singapore, is situated in the campus of the integrated Hwa Chong Institution, which incorporates The Chinese High School and Hwa Chong Junior College. Standing at 31 metres tall atop a small knoll on which parts of the campus was built on, the building was completed as part of the campus of The Chinese High School in 1925, funded by generous donations from the Chinese community leaders. It served as an imposing landmark for the Bukit Timah area where it is surrounded by relatively low-rise private housing estates. It was used in tactical military situations during the Pacific War in World War II. Its strategic location atop a hill gave any troops stationed in it a good view of the island. It was used by the Allied defenders during the Battle of Singapore, as well as during the Japanese Occupation of Singapore, it was occupied by the Imperial Japanese Army for the purpose of surveillance. The tower's four-faced clock was destroyed and removed during World War II, and was restored in the early 1970s, with replacements donated by Seiko. The clock tower went through a series of restoration and expansion in the 1990s, in which a new library was added. On 19 March 1999, two days before the 80th anniversary of the school, the clock tower was gazetted as a national monument, to mark the significance of the institution as the first Chinese-medium secondary school to be built in Southeast Asia catering to the Overseas Chinese by its founder, Mr Tan Kah Kee.

- 南洋华侨中学钟楼是一座立于现今新加坡华侨中学校园内的新加坡国家古迹。目前，此楼为前南洋华侨中学和前华中初级学院合并成立的新加坡华侨中学所属，为中学部教学楼及大堂。 此楼高31米，立于华中校园（华中为原南洋华侨中学与现今新加坡华侨中学的中文简称）由于建立在一座冈陵上，也称华岗）的最顶端。此楼为于1925年校园建成的华中校园的主牌楼，由华社领袖慷慨捐助建校办学。 钟楼作为一个强而有力的地标性建筑，瞭望整个武吉知马住宅区。 在第二次世界大战太平洋战争爆发之时，此楼作为战术性军事地标，战略位置非凡。由于当时钟楼足以让士兵瞭望新加坡岛屿全境，它成为了联军在新加坡战役的退守点，以及在日本占领的新加坡之时，为日本皇军的战略据点。 钟楼顶端的四面钟在第二次世界大战后期被摧毁，并在1970年代初重新修复。替代零件由精工全数捐赠。 钟楼的规模在华中于1990年代一系列现代化扩建工程中获得提升，并添加了新的中学部图书馆。 1999年3月19日，在华中创校80周年之际，华中钟楼被列为一个国家古迹。 此举见证了华中作为东南亚首间华文中学的辉煌历史，更见证了由陈嘉庚为首的华社兴校办学的的精神。 (zh)
