I think you are using the wrong tool. You appear to be using gnu coreutils, the "stat" command is available.
Filetimes (ctime, mtime, and atime plus and optional file "birth time") are kept in epoch seconds.
There are 86400 seconds in one day. stat -c "%X filename" returns that value for mtime for the file. mtime is the last time the file was written.
So there are lot of ways to do this. One way:
The above assumes 86400 * 16 seconds from RIGHT NOW. If you want the entire day starting from midnight then you have to subtract the extra seconds after midnight
