Ah yeah, that is because just one label is used for the whole thing, so when it needs to scale the font down to fit "Manila", it also scales down the clock font :S

At this point I'd like to leave this as is for now as fixing it would require splitting this into two standalone labels and given this change would not be trivial, I'd leave it for after this gets merged.
