Having spent most of my adult life working in the marine industry my brain is hard wired to the 24 clock. So for me what 68OrangeSunshine says is what I see . Correct with the exception of the luminous dial. I have to turn the dome light on sometimes.
I needed a 4th couplet to my Burma Shave quatrain.
The image of luminous hands was poetic license.
