I found the answer here:
the clock symbol lights up once a year on all BMW till built year 08/1990, but from built date 09/1990 every 2 years in connection (together) with the annual inspection. That means the annual inspection is due, no matter how many km the car was driven
Die Anzeige "Jahreskontrolle" durch das Uhrensymbol wird in derselben Weise gelöscht wie die Anzeige "INSPECTION" der Verschleisswartung.
after resetting of the annual (clock) inspection the check control lights remain the same. Should there be the exceptional case that the annual service as well as the regular service/inspection light up at the same time, both can be reset one after the other, but there must be a 10 seconds interuption in between both resets.
