It's always bugged me there's no "metric time".
1 metric minute = 100 seconds = 1.667 Babylonian minutes
1 metric hour = 100 metric minutes = 166.7 Babylonian minutes = 2.78 Babylonian hours.
1 day = 8.61 metric hours = 1436 Babylonian minutes = 23.93 Babylonian hours.
Thoughts?

I've always thought that if we are redefining time units a better solution might be 100000 metric seconds in a day (making them a bit shorter than the existing 86400 in a day) and otherwise the same relationships you've suggested:
1 metric minute = 100 metric seconds
1 metric hour = 100 metric minutes
1 day = 10 metric hours.
10 hour 10 second easier.
A quarter pass 7.
