Ehhhh that doesn't really answer the question though, as non-digital 24 hour clocks still often have the numbers 1-24 rather than 0-23. Or sometimes even 1-12 twice

You mean analog 24-hour clocks? Those things are cursed. You still say “zero twenty-five” even if there’s no 0 on the face.

And clocks that only go to 12 and repeat are just regular clocks.

😂

My friend, that picture you linked to is anything but a regular clock.

It is a clock, but it looks like whomever designed it wanted to also make it a sundial yet without having the foresight to convert it into a 24-hour display. Double cursed.

It's an example of the "1-12 twice" that I was referencing
