Everyone is clowning on the order, but clock faces also traditionally use IIII instead of IV.

I've never seen that. 🤷

It's very easy to miss if you aren't looking for it. But if you keep an eye out, you'll see most clocks with roman numerals do this.

The next time my spouse and I are in Target, we’ll check the Magnolia section. They love that section and I bet there is a clock made of candle wax shaped like an old radio or something sitting there with this. ROFL
