The time format depends on your operating system settings.
See control panel | regional options | time

The problem isn't that the time format is incorrect, it's that the time format
is inconsistent.  The time picker in the New Event dialog presents time choices
in 24 hour format, but the time shown in the start/end time fields show the time
in 12 hour format.  If this setting is truly from the OS, it should be the same,
either both 12 or both 24, depending on the OS.  This happens under Linux (FC1)
as well.
