You're not doing anything wrong. Apple just relocated the "announce time" to a place that takes a few more steps to find. Start with (Apple menu) > System Preferences... > Dock & Menu Bar. Scroll down the leftmost column where you will find Clock. That is where you will find the "Announce the time" selection you seek.

Please refer to Change Dock & Menu Bar preferences on Mac - Apple Support.
Excerpt:
For Clock, you can set options to customize how the time and the date appear in the menu bar. To hear the time announced, select the “Announce the time” checkbox, then choose when you want it announced and the voice used for the announcements.
John G. Followed your instructions & time announced. I ask will the announcement continue without interruption during the day? Will it be interrupted after a period of time with no activity?
This Community very fortunate to have such knowledgeable contributors as you.
Thankyou.
It should. I tested it to be sure. If for some reason it stops working though, please write back. There have been a few scattered reports that it may stop working for reasons that are not clear, so if that's the case I would suspect a bug in macOS.
John Galt: appreciate the quick response. My problem is I do not see the "announce time " option as previously. What am I doing wrong? Many thanks.
John G. Thanks again. Found the "Announce Time" as per your instructions. Will set up & report probably tomorrow. Thanks again. Would never have found this witout your help.
