Clock with only 9s

A clock that has only 9’s in it.
Very Interesting!

Having 9s does not make it special…. U can design a clock having only 9 with

9/9 (=1),

(9+9)/9(=2),

(9+9+9)/9(=3) and so on…

What makes it really amazing is the fact that… it has only 3 9s in each digit representation…
Its really great calculations and design… ;-)
