The king as 12 is not the problem with the clock. The problem with the clock are the hands. They're painted black over a black clock face. What time is it? I don't know.

The photo above is not an accurate representation of how the clock appears in real life. Black on black == poor visibility.

I painted the hands of my clock white. So much better.

Makes sense lol. I think the clock may be more for aesthetic purposes rather than actual utilization purposes.

I think it should be a knight and queen or a bishop and queen and the king would be in the center of the clock
