Let me explain what I did for the test:
I opened Ubuntu Xenial, with Unity (not the gnome shell), then I checked
xenial-proposed and restarted Ubuntu with Unity. In this situation I see
5:05 PM instead of 17:05. I have wrongly drawn the conclusion that the
clock uses gnome. Do you know in what module I should change this?
Thanks,
