I can’t find a sufficiently explicit jaw-dropping emoji but is it possible that it’s a Masonic dial given the hammer and trowel?

Does put it in perspective with the compass at 7 and the square at 5 hidden. So fits right in with the whole masonic thing.

Only the real Illuminati know what is covered at the 6.

Ouch, hurts my eyes.

Hamilton offered the Rodney with a Masonic dial, this "Omega" is just a mess.
