Newham | Godwin Rd E7 | 53J Failing to comply with a restriction

Hello there,
Today I received a PCN in the post for driving through a School
Street during its restricted hours.
After reviewing the footage, I realised the mistake was mine, my
clock in my car was out by a few minutes which I've now
corrected.
The sign was no vehicles between 8.30- 9.30am and 3-4pm, Monday
– Friday.
I entered the restricted area on Monday 6 June at 9.26.49, just
3 minutes, 11 seconds before the restriction ended at 9:30am.
I live on the adjacent road just outside of the restriction.
I’m wondering:
• Is there a realistic chance of appealing this ticket
successfully, can Newham notice a geniune mistake?
As per the evidence I did drive through the restriction, but I
feel it was an honest mistake, and the timing was very close to
the restriction lifting.
I've include photos of:

I'm afraid that 3 minutes is rather too much for representations
based on it being a trivial amount of time, but you might get a
better result by emphasising you are a local resident living
very near to the restriction, and knew of it, and was sure you
had no entered before 09.30. However, on receiving the PCN you
checked the clock in your car and found it was incorrect. You
ask that the PCN be cancelled on this ocasion, as you did not
intend to transgress, and thought at the time, you were outside
the restricted times.

Thank you for time in reviewing.
This sounds like the best chance of getting off. I'll let you
know how i get on.
