What's in a face ... the Stocking Watch tells time with circles

I appreciate the novelty in the design and newness in it. But all watches (not digital) show 12 hours am and 12 hours pm. The Train and Air Times are for 24 hours for example 19.00 hrs. There were times when people miss early morning times without ascertaining the date.

I suggest one can make watches which run for 24 hours.

Yeah I have been prone to having the odd "really far out idea".... and the longer I thought about it, the odder it seemed.

If I had an idea like this, and I ran an office, and to be a company jerk off to the max - If I changed all the clocks to have faces like this one - on the walls and the computers; I'd be beating the crap out of me in the car park for being such an idiot.

Clever idea tho.

Personally I think its a cool design. None of the clocks in my world/life are 12 hr not 24 hr format. I know the difference between am and pm and have never missed a plane, train, or appointment.

I don't really care for this design- more confusing than practical. Novel doesn't always mean better. I like most of the radical designs I see here- just not this one..

Looks very similar to the moiré display screen inside the classic Star Trek communicator.

Excellent Idea!

@George Sayre: With digital displays the problem doesn't exist, but the 12 hr design for analog displays isn't very practical. You can't see whether it's 3 AM or 3 PM. You can only see it's 3 o'clock.

@BoilingOil There's a small difference between the two 3 o'clocks: the first one usually occurs in darkness, the other in sunlight. Unless of course you live at one of the poles... Personally I've never had trouble differentiating between the two (not that I often see the first one!)
