Each of the four faces on The Market Hall Tower Clock are over 20 feet across. The clock tower final is approximately 40 feet tall.

The numbers look like digital eights, my guess is that may light up to show the numbers, the only problem with that is, there would need to be two blocks for the figure 12.
