Your clock is digital, and not of the 24-hour variety.
Also it's set properly, so only valid times show.

You have the right idea.

Your analysis is right on.
But clocks I've seen don't display that format (leading zero)

One could say either you over-achieved, or your brightness was just unreal.
Good solve.
