[R] Plotting zoo objects with chron axis

Dear all,

I have a problem which I'm not to fix. I have the following two series:

a=structure(c(33242.5196150509, 34905.8434338503, 38490.6957848689, 
38747.0287172129, 38919.1028597142, 39026.3956586941, 38705.5344288997, 
38545.6274379387, 38651.2079354205, 38748.2769580121), index =
structure(c(14029, 
14032, 14033, 14034, 14035, 14036, 14039, 14040, 14041, 14042
), class = "Date"), class = "zoo")

b=structure(c(53337.7643740991, 52210.2079727035, 50235.4480363949, 
50667.1147389469, 50796.5403152116, 51113.5420947436, 51003.3603311344, 
50654.0539778796, 49927.5267060329, 49320.1813921822), index =
structure(c(14029, 
14032, 14033, 14034, 14035, 14036, 14039, 14040, 14041, 14042
), class = "Date"), class = "zoo")

I want to plot them on the same chart, with the x-axis the Date, and the
y-axis the time in format %H:%M. At the moment, the y series is expressed in
seconds from midnight. I am confused with the as.POSIXct conversion.

> hours(min(rollrep))
[1] 9
> minutes(min(rollrep))
[1] 34
> seconds(min(rollrep))
[1] 27

however, by doing the following it seems the minimum time is 11:09, which is
not true.

as.POSIXct(round(min(rollrep)),origin=Sys.Date())
[1] "2013-08-09 11:09:14 CEST"

Do you have any advice? Is there a way to plot only the hours and minutes,
without having to go to the Sys.Date?

Thank you,
Marco
