Thank you @defalt for pointing this out! Will look into this, I agree transform function may be the reason.

Oh my... Found it.  
`"format": "%d %H:%m"` or `%s`  
is wrong. %m = Month and %s is unix epoch ([Link](https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format#locale_format))  
Changed it to `"format": "%d %H:%M,%S"` and it looks good now.

Indeed, I was testing it with %H:%M. Great, I am really happy that works for you now 🙂 👏
