This application provides you with customizable analog clocks for your desktop and Dock. The free version of this the program allows you to choose among five different clock designs to beautify the appearance of your screen.
Setting the clock style you prefer most is done from the Preferences menu. Each design comes with animated Quartz movement that makes your clock more attractive and closer to reality. You can set the clock to stay always on top of other windows or to appear after a specific time of computer inactivity. The position of your clock and its size can be adjusted according to your needs. In addition, you have the ability to control its level of transparency, which is a valuable feature, mainly when you have set your clock to float over open windows and running applications.
In short, Desktop Clock free offers five nice analog clocks. If you want your favorite clock to be permanently visible on your screen, you can set the program to launch automatically at system's login. Unfortunately, the program's functionality is limited to showing the current time only – no other time-related features (like setting alarms, timekeeping tasks, or scheduling calendar activities) are provided.

Great app with all the desirable preferences I would ever want. Also, it will replace my beautiful little Mondaine clock that is set on my real desktop for the past few years, and just died for the second time. Love the fact that the app allows me to choose the same clock-face.
