I think in practice wirklich much more commonly means "really", not "real".

Hi az_p, I agree with you.
If I want to say that the clock exists I would say "Die Uhr ist real."
If I want to say the clock is real I would say "Die Uhr ist echt."
If I want to assert you that the clock exists I would say " Die Uhr ist wirklich real."

"wirklich" can also be used as an adjective (see: Duden), so "diese Uhr ist wirklich" should be accepted imo (though to be fair, I've seen "wirklich" being used as an adverb much more often)
