Single Hand · Reading and design
How to read
One hand turns once a day: midnight at the top, 06:00 right, noon below and 18:00 left. At 18:30 it is one quarter of the way from 18 to 20. Estimate minutes between hour marks.
Design and this interpretation
A lone hand emphasizes position within the day rather than passing seconds. This 24-hour arrangement has no verified attribution to a particular historical model or modern brand.
