My understanding of this phenomenon is that there are some settings for watches that the pattern of the dial and shows the structure. After designs / inlays, different companies have different time-clock. 10:10 The most common reason is if your hands outside the form of a variety of design elements but still visible on the clock. (The brain of man leads the eye up to the draft and more attention!)
I hope that helps! Good luck!
