Found it:
D:\Games\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Menu\Pages\Page Clock.cfg

Example:
[G29 I5]
Name=Chronometer Minute
Type=1031;Stat bmp array
ItemID=0x2902000F
ParentID=0x29020000
Pos=116,-94,8,52
Zone= 840 614 8 52 0 1 0x2902000C 0.5 -0.09 0x2902000F -0.5 0 0 0
Color=0x80FE
Materials=1
Display=5;Linear&rotation
Mat 0=data/menu/skins/american/gui/clock.dds
Crop 0=0.910156,0.410156,0.015625,0.203125
MatFlags=0x9
TexFmt=0x0
Drag=false
BmpState=1
NeedFocus=false
SelOne=false
IdGroup=0
StatesColors=0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0xFFFFFFFF

These are your colors I believe. I think you have to find the correct sequence of letters and number for the color you want.

I found the small dials/arms:

D:\Games\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\data\Menu\Gui\Chrono.dds

The dials/arms are like the blue stopwatch dial/arm, determined by the alpha. Seems like they are colored red.

Here is also a small metal dot, found at the center of the stopwatch.

notice the American/gui/clock.dds, my game is reading my mod from the german/gui/clock.dds....?

i have changed this file also, changed to to yellow no change to the ingame end result.

stumped on this one

, they could work like the others, not sure why they dont..

Photoshop displays 4-channel images (RGB-A) in not a direct way. It shows Alpha information via a red tint (purely arbitrary choice). Check your channels tab and select/deselect channels to get a feel for what's going on.

#FFFFFF is white #000000 is black, pure red would be #FF0000.

Sorted !

an extra large cookie for Decoman !

it was this line "Color=C3BD9F" found in the page clock.ini , which makes a whole lot of sense next to those other numers that didnt fall into the photoshop format..

why it says its read from the american GUI though is a complete mystery. why this game is full of Sh4 content is a mystery too.

Did you not c that clock up, or is that a part of the original texture. It eh sort of stands out abit.
