1. Best display set up to showcase all arms, numerals, letterings and other potential text on the face/dial pad.
2. Distinctly shows the short arm and the long arm for hour and minutes as well as the seconds arm (if any) which would be at the 30
3. Gives maximum space for logo & other text to be displayed
4. Sometimes, the top half of the round face of a watch typically also contains either a date or some kind of an alarm display, and this also can be presented as a sales/marketing feature prominently in an advertisement or display showcase.
5. This 10:10 is usually only on non-digital display units i.e. ones without the arms...the digital display of 10:10 is just a carry on or a fall off of the traditional or age old advertising/marketing practice for watches with arms....just vintage stuff and for lack of creativity...or in another perspective...could be percieved as very creative digitally...you would actually see 10:10: 10 i.e. 10 hrs, 10 minutes and 10 seconds and so on to display the accuracy to which the watch can function

Dont know if there really is a specific reason - but then at 10:10, the way the hour hand and the minute hand are placed, all other features on the dial are very clearly visible - like the name of the company (usually on the top), the day / date - which is usually around the digit 3 or 6.

In the position 10:10 the hours',minutes'seconds' hand is clear from the brand name and description which is normally mentioned a bit below top and a bit below bottom of the dial's circumference. The brand and logos are clearly visible in these positions of the hour and minute hands.

All answer given upto Mr. Kuan is wrong and I astonished to see that to get 2 points how our friend ready to give wrong answer.
The real answer is that 10:10 is the time of death of 16th. President of U.S.A.,Abhraham Lincoln.To show the respect to him analog clock manufacturer decided to show that very time 10:00.
No other cause.

Well, it may look like a smiley face, it was the time for prayer after WWII and it usually is able to show to company name e.g. Seiko of the clock. You might like to search on a similar topic called the '1111 phenomenon'. I have been experiencing this for quite some time, and I wonder what is going on...
Cheers!

its so as to frame the brand name and if the brand is at the bottom its so as not to obstruct the name of the company
