Abstract: In de Sitter static patch holography, coupling bulk quantum fields to an observer's dynamical clock yields a type II$_1$ von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}_+$ of gauge-invariant observables. However, the unique tracial state on this algebra fails to reproduce semiclassical bulk correlation functions. We resolve this issue by introducing a family of heavy-clock states, representing an observer reference frame with heavy inertia. We prove that in the heavy-clock limit, $n$-point correlation functions of gauge-invariant dressed observables reproduce the bulk quantum field correlation functions on de Sitter spacetime. Furthermore, we investigate a generalized observer Hamiltonian $\widehat{H}_{\rm obs}=|\widehat{\pi}|$ that incorporates both forward-running ($\pi\geq 0$) and backward-running ($\pi
