This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

Comments

The inclusion of the second hand leads to solutions differing from those of A120500. Apart from the perfect match at midnight or noon, the other minima are characterized by small angles > 0 between the hour and the minute hands and a coincidence of the second hand with one of the other two hands. It turns out that the coincidence of the minute and second hands never leads to the smaller angle value. The exact times in seconds are given by A348759, with rounding to nearest second applied to determine the terms of this sequence.
