I never noticed that. I haven't seen any clocks with roman numerals in a
while, the exception being a clock my grandmother gave my family which keeps
the numerals level to the ground, and because of that uses a "IV" instead of
a "IIII."

Although I don't see how you could confuse a IV with a VI, even on such a
watch. IV is the only number that comes between III and V! ;-)
