Not quite what I meant. Lots of watch faces play on the fact that 12 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, and 6. For example, take this [1] Ulysse Nardin watch. It has six nice "hexa"-markings (a common theme among watches). Some other watches go for the cross-hair (division by 4). Neither one of the styles would be possible with the 10 hour system.
Note: those watches do not reflect my personal taste, they were just the easiest to find.
