Another one is finding a monospace font that looks good, and doesn’t look out of place. I don’t know if SF Mono is that.

Maybe all proportional, fixed space, centered around the colon? Would that be weird?

What I mean is: colon is always in the same space, minutes are left-aligned, hours are right-aligned?
