I think it's some time between 10:13 AND 10:14.  

Watches for sale are shown at about 10:10 but I've been wondering what would be the exact time when both hands would be equally distant from the 12.

With thanks   Roy  C.

minut hand go faster, so it get ahed av out hand, but then come up behind & katch up

both hands start at 12 & 12 ours later both bak up at 12

thus, minut hand go around 11 times in same time our hand go around 1 time

Time tu katch up=12 ours/11=1.0909090909 ours=3927.2727272727272 sekonds

time 10=10*1.09090909...10:54_32.7272727272
