When people talk they speak in the 12 hour clock, but written communication is in 24hr
(in German) Both formats are commonly used in both cases.
Can confirm this is the case in Spain, always spoken as the 12hr equivalent but written in 24hr
It varies very much from country to country. In some it is perfectly fine to say "meet you at 19 o'clock" or similar.
