I would try it with the LEDs farther away from the face, about an inch behind the face. That will allow the beams to spread and provide a more uniform brightness, and that will look better. At least I think that a fairly uniform brightness looks better. And you would not need a s many LEDs

You say the black and white are flush? As in the numbers are inlaid? I kind of think some edge lighting that would be kind of invisible except where it bounces off the inlaid numbers might be neat. The only problem is like the centers of 6, 8, 9, and 0 would stay dark and the hands might not be very visible. Just a thought or maybe a highlight.
