Answer: when PCM sees it (synced from Office 365). The actual appointment:

Porsche Taycan When is 2pm 2am? 1592138388925


And in PCM:

Porsche Taycan When is 2pm 2am? 1592138415077


Yeah. Sometimes you wonder if this stuff was tested. :)

And yet this appointment:

Porsche Taycan When is 2pm 2am? 1592138502064


Shows up properly:

Porsche Taycan When is 2pm 2am? 1592138526398

Probably works properly if you change your office calendar to 24-hour clock format.

Maybe - it's certainly something I'd considered - but as far as I know the APIs involved return the time in UTC with a time zone offset.

Note that it's unclear how the Taycan's calendar application works with Time Zones - there's no way to set the "local" zone, and so I have to assume it's using whatever the car is in by looking at the clock and GPS position.

Here's an example ICS file timestamp:

DTSTAMP:20200612T195947Z
DTSTART:20200612T223000Z
DTEND:20200613T003000Z

That's definitely already in 24-hour format. It would be weird for them to be parsing the actual 'text' of the entry...but if they are doing so, they're doing it wrong. :)
