The dial on my deck rail has a nought for noon. It is a standard garden shop horizontal dial, a cheap imported brass casting given to me years ago by a relative who knew I was interested dials. My only modification is to tilt it 11 degrees to correct for latitude. The pattern must have been copied from an original design that used nought for noon. I would be interested to learn the source of the original. Roger Bailey Walking Shadow Designs n 51 W 115
