Can this clock face be accurate? Yes! There's literary proof: "September Midnight" (Sara Teasdale, Poetry magazine, 1914) as well as September 12th (2002). A novel entitled One October (Steve Stratton, 2011). A book of Haiku entitled November 2. And so on: December Third, January 4th, February 5th ... you get the idea with that.
