Bug Description

Times for other locations that are shown in the menu are not formatted the same way that the indicator menu bar clock is formated.

To reproduce (from the default config):

1. Go to Time & Date Settings -> Clock
2. Select "In the clock, show: 24-hour time"
3. Check "Time in other locations"
4. Add a location under "Choose Locations". I entered UTC. Note that the formatting is correctly used here.
5. Exit configuration windows

Expected result: UTC time would be shown in menu with 24-hour format

Actual result: UTC time is shown in menu using 12-hour format

I experience this problem in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

Please note that it also appears in this askubuntu question,

http://askubuntu.com/questions/493725/24h-time-format-not-applied-on-other-locations

where it is purported that it is a regression from 12.04 (which works correctly) to 14.04 (which doesn't). I haven't confirmed that statement.
