I was able to see the clock lettering (Alivaba font) by opening up the ESPTouch app and passing my WiFi credentials while the FACTORY was loaded in my T-Display-S3.
My favorite YouTuber Volos has a good video where he covers how to use custom fonts.

This is part 3, so it’s also worth reviewing parts 1 and 2. Hope that helps.
UPDATE: Just realized my clock is an hour off. Hope your results are better.
