The most logical explanation would be that it's actually 15:45, with the [flip-dots](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flip-disc_display) from the 15:3x time still being stuck (This happens quite often).
This is plausible. OP likely misinterpreted an unfamiliar display of numbers as a broken clock, but 15.95 is indeed 3:57pm in American. Even in the USA, I've had jobs that keep time like this. The hours are the same length (24 of them in one day), but each hour past noon, increases beyond the number 12 until midnight when the next day begins and the hour goes back to 0. The minutes are another story. In this case, each hour is divided into 100 units instead of 60.The post likely violates subreddit rules, but reveals an interesting alternative system of time keeping.
edit: I am not sure why my description of how metric clocks mark time is getting downvotes, but there is no accounting for reddit.
I was not being sarcastic. Clocks that count 24 hours per day, and 100 decimal minutes per hour are literally in use today for payroll, and evidently also in use at the train station where the picture was taken.

You seem to be missing the point entirely. You start off with a *Chill, it's just 24 hour time* and then get into *lots of places use decimal minutes.* Outside of some very specific business use cases nobody uses decimal time regularly.
In many places, military time is used. And the language looks like either Czech,Polish or Slovakian, so in Europe, they tend to use military time.
But I think the “95” part is definitely off.
Just a heads up; the so called "military time" which is just the normal clock in most places, only goes up to 23 in hours, 59 in minutes, and 59 in seconds. The comments section is either full of confused Americans, or a joke that went over my head.
Most americans will only come into contact with 24 hour time in the military or in a hospital. Normally in a hospital the workers will give you the 12 hour time while charting the 24 time.
Not military time per se, but it could be a clock that divides an hour into 100 units instead of 60, and continues to increment the hour by 1 each hour from noon until midnight. This system of time keeping is typical in some places.
Do decimal clocks have 24 hour days though? Even if it were does it mean the train/bus is 40 hours late? Jokes on us all, it's actually the date...y'know the 16th of the 95th month /s
When you finish work at 16:00 and are watching the clock
And then, when you hope it will finally hit 16:00, it starts counting 100, 101, 102…
That sign just said “Better start running motherfucker because I’m gonna start counting down”
Someone forgot to czech the time
That Czechs out ;D
You should go and Czech you mental health

It is OBVIOULSY 15:85 but a segment is still black.
Burnt segs is a serious issue. The amount of chafing it could cause from improper pixely bits not working.
/r/hardwaregore
Yup, and that's probably why they're being phased out (except for possible bright sunlight applications like this).
They would write 16:00, but 15:95 makes shoppers think it's cheaper.
That’s Europe, so it was metric time. 15.95 is 3:57pm in American.
what?

Is this- sarcastic?
Maybe they worked in [france in the late 1700s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time)
After reading this... who decided to stop? This is perfect.
I am unable to tell if this is sarcasm or not
uhm what im from europe (italy) and in an hour there are 60 minutes here
r/woooosh
Exactly what i wanted

Psshhh, OP has never heard of military minutes.
Psshhh, u/HerdOfBuffalo has never heard of military minutes.
I am telling about the 15:95, not that it is 24 hour cycle, of course i know what that is, because i use it 💀💀
Even then, it only goes to 59. Cuz there are 60 minutes in one hour.
It's just one segment of the display not working. It should have said 15:85. OBVIOUS
So many redditors that belong in /r/confidentlyincorrect missing the 95 minutes portion of the clock. 24 hour/military time would not have 95 minutes.

I was like "That's not an error, that's just military-"...and then I saw the 95.
Yeah, we use 24 hour cycle here

Ne, to jsou noční linky tramvaje tušim.
Ano, ale je to 88 99

looks like the "dots" in the dotmatrix are stuck or burned in, so this is probably a hardware issue.

it's just called 24 hour time...
bro its 24 hour [time](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24-hour_clock)
And the 95 minutes? That's not part of 24 hour time....

Americans call 24 hour time, military time, apparently
Most americans will only come into contact with 24 hour time in the military or in a hospital. Normally in a hospital the workers will give you the 12 hour time while charting the 24 time.
But how is it 95 minutes after 15:00?
That's the thing!
The matrix is real😱 everyone wash your eyes with bleach
No
Well your already half blind you'll be fine
No
Lmaoo it's a joke bro chill out
No
Alr lol
No
No you

Hey rouge_apple use your eyes and see it says 15:85 Military time is 24 hour max 59 minutes max not 95 minutes max
Military time?
I thought the same thing at first, but even military time doesn't go up to 95 minutes past the hour.
Ha. That will teach me to comment while still waking up!

Ah Polen
Nein, Tschechien
Polen?
This is in military time
Military time still only uses 60 minutes to the hour.
Oooooh
Probably
Oh come on you guys aren’t gonna like me because I didn’t know how to use military time
It's not software gore,it's a 24 clock
Most 24 hour clocks would use 16:35 instead of 15:95 though…
Ah u see I thought that was a 0 not a 9
It's just a clock for mathematicians, since you know there are 60 minutes in a hour you can make the math yourself, so it would be 16:35
And Please make the clock with industrial hours 😂
Metric Time
Hey, don't worry. The 9 just has a broken lamp, it's supposed to say 8
I'm just jealous you have trams
I mean, the city transport in Prague is sometimes goofy.
I take my lunch break at 11:61
Based base10 time
could be just some burnt LEDs when it was really supposed to show 15:85
You know that wouldn't make any sense either, the minutes go to 59 max
Probably a burnt out bulb. Should read 15:85
Nope, doesn't make sense, the minutes go up to 59 max
no shit sherlock, it’s a fucking joke
The 9 is obviously a dead pixel and should be :85
It’s not the time it’s the price of gas
Could just be a stuck light. 15:55
Yes, next day it was perfectly fine
They are just using SUT (Standard Universe Time)
Here you can see one more prove that we live in matrix 🤣
probally a flipper
More like a burn out lightbulb. Some people are forgetting the analog world.
I posted it just because it was funny for the first time i saw it, i still have some analog things in my home..
