Menu:Format>Cells...Tab:Numbers, Category Time, Format: anything you like.
If you need to reuse this formatting more often: Call the stylist (key F11), highlight a formatted cell (Ctrl+Click) and drag the cell onto the stylist. You'll be asked for a style name. Then you can apply the same formatting to selected ranges simply by double-clicking the named style. You can change the appearance of all equally styled ranges by simply changing the named style.
