That's what I think everytime I look at a clock or my watch and it's 17:01
Star Trek o'clock

Your clocks and watches are on military time?

They are, but no one calls that "military".
Stay tuned, I'll post some pictures of clocks
Although I live in the UK and have a personal preference for 24HR clock/watch display, I don't think it's anymore prevalent here particularly. Most people I know will still talk about 7PM this evening etc.
If someone were to ask me the time, and I answered 15:30 as opposed to 3:30 - they would probably look at me gone out!
But, yes, if I glance at a clock and see 17:01 it's definitely Trek time!

I live in the U.S., but we had a VCR while I was growing up that was always on a 24-hour clock so I knew the 24-hour clock since I was a little kid. Most people in the U.S don't use the 24-hour clock, so I was like... the only one out of my friends that knew it lol. 
And my dad did refer to it as "military time" since he used the 24-hour clock while he was in the Navy, but now I know that a lot of other countries just use it as their normal clock. I work at a Korean company now and they all use the 24-hour clock.

I have it memorized from my old VCR lol. It comes in handy now that my company uses it.
