It's actually because clock and watch makers put their logo under the 12 and placing the hands at 10 and 2 (to read 10:10), helps to frame and show off the logo. Digital clock makers have just picked up on that tradition.

Never noticed this! Good eye. Maybe it's because that time looks like a happy face. And happy people spend $$$.

I was told that it was because it made the clock look like it was smiling, and that was appealing to consumers
