In their own words

ClocX

ClocX is a free analog clock application for Microsoft Windows. It provides 350 configurable clock faces, three antialiasing levels, and 256 transparency levels, including a mouse-over transparency option. Window controls can keep the clock on top, pin it to the desktop, prevent movement, or let clicks pass through. Alarms can show a window, play a sound, run an application, or shut down the computer. A simple calendar is included. The application supports multiple languages, including Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, and Japanese, and can start with Windows for all users or at the current user’s login. The maker describes it as freeware without ads, spyware, adware, or toolbars. Version 1.6.0 is listed in 32-bit and 64-bit editions, supporting Windows XP SP2 and later through Windows 11. The plan costs nothing.
