Maybe so, but if you're wall clock is off, you're just late for the lunch special.
It won't necessarily affect anything. This temperature device may be important.
Take what Sidney suggested. A decent auditor is not going to write up a wall temperature/ RH device sitting by the water cooler, just because it's not calibrated. However, when you see two devices in a particular process area, it does make one think that temperature is kind of important there. Thus, the need to assure valid readings is applicable.
The first thing is to view what the thermometers are measuring, and when it is important (if it exists) when there is a temperature variance. Here in Texas, it is still 100°F everyday. So if there is a requirement to maintain a certain area, say 70°F +/-10°F, then we would need a thermometer. If you are in Southern CA or an area where the temperature is pretty much the same everyday in that range, then you probably would not need to monitor the temperature.
If you have two devices, what you could do is offset their calibration dates; make it a year or so. That way you always have one of them in use. This is, if you need them at all.
