    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
