Error when DeserializeObject that includes DateTime in newtonsoft.js

Question

I am trying to deserialize an object in a web api controller. It consists of DateTime. Date format. The Time property is dd-MM-YYYY. I set the json serialzer dd-MM-YYYY format in the global.asax file. However, it gives me the error "failed to convert string to date and time."

Attaching both files as an image

The function to run the application file Global.asax

 protected void Application_Start()
        {
            AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();

            WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);
            FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
            RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
            //BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
            AuthConfig.RegisterAuth();
            GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.MessageHandlers.Add(new ApiAuthenticationHandler());
            JobScheduler.Start();
            JsonConvert.DefaultSettings = () => new JsonSerializerSettings
            {
                DateFormatString = "dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm tt",
            };
            var dateTimeConverter = new IsoDateTimeConverter
            {
                DateTimeFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm tt"
            };
            GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings
                   .Converters.Add(dateTimeConverter);

        }

API request

{
    "CustomerViewModel": {

        "DOB": "18-12-2018",

    }
}

API controller

public Guid CustomerSignup(JObject parametrs)
        {
            dynamic jsonParameters = parametrs;
            CustomerViewModel customer = jsonParameters.CustomerViewModel.ToObject<CustomerViewModel>();
            if (ModelState.IsValid)
            {
                try
                {
                    Guid CurrentApplicationId = new Guid(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ApplicationId"].ToString());
                    Logic logic = new Logic(CurrentApplicationId);
                    Guid result = logic.AddCustomers(customer, false);
                    if (result != new Guid())
                    {
                        logic.SendVerifcationEmail(result, customer.UserName, customer.UserAddress.Email, Request.RequestUri.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Authority));
                        return result;
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        return result;
                    }
                }
                catch (Exception ex)
                {
                    if (ex.GetType().Name == "FaultException")
                    {
                        throw new FaultException(ex.Message);
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        throw new FaultException("Fields are not valid.");
