Spaniard here. We speak in terms of 1-12 hours but we know to parse 17:00 as 5PM in the spot. As they stated, we write down 17:00 but to speak it aloud to the rest of people we will just say 'five o'clock in the evening'.

This is how it is for me as well, once you learn 24h time it's about as simple as can be, and I learned when I was a kid. I don't think I've ever lived anywhere where 24h time was the norm for writing/displaying though - or maybe I just didn't notice because I'm fine with it.
