English: This clockface is designed for French Republican decimal time and displays the following timescales, from innermost to outermost: 12 months of the French Republican calendar, 30 days of the French Republican month, 10 decimal hours of the day, and 100 decimal minutes of the decimal hour (the decimal minute hand turning twice a decimal hour, 1-50 and 51-100). The months, days and minutes start at the 5 hour position, which corresponded to noon, and was likely at the top of the clock. 10 hours corresponded to midnight.
