New York-based designer Ji Lee's Redundant Clock uses hands oriented toward the hour markings for its hour markings.
Browsing around Lee's website, I also found this interesting work of guerrilla art. Lee puts empty speech bubbles over public advertisements and then photographs what people write in them.

This would be a neat way to teach kids how to tell time.

Actually, all he really did was take a normal un-numbered clock and add a vertical line to each hour marker. These markers are normally oriented this way. :)

It would have been cooler if each symbol had a second hand running in unison with all the rest too.
