    Now I want a wall clock where you can rotate the face but keep everything else the same for daylight savings.

      I don’t understand. That method or the one in the picture both change the time by 1 hour and 5 minutes, amirite? You have to change the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand, to adjust by 1 hour.

        You still read the minute hand the same way as before.
        Imagine both hands point straight up.

        Before that was 12 for the hour hand and 0 for the minute hand: 12:00 o’clock.

        Now it reads 1 for the hour hand but still 0 for the minute hand: 1:00 o’clock

        The hour and minute readouts are shifted by an angle, the same angle you’d normally add between the hands
