A gong
A gong was a musical instrument. When struck with the appropriate force, the gong produced a loud, resonating tone. In the years preceding the rise of Palpatine's Galactic Empire, the Jedi kept a gong in their temple. It was used to signal time, being struck at the top of every hour.
Dinner gongs, a specific type of gongs, were used to signal the readiness of nightmeal, particularly among Wookiees.
Smuggler's Rest had a drink gong that sounded whenever bought a round of drinks.[1]
