Chris Kent has written a nice clock application for MacOS and added this 24 hour option. No minute hand!

2006 calendar

Screensaver for Mac

World clock

Konfabulator
For my Mac I’ve created this 24 hour analog clock by adapting a cool 12 hour clock provided by the extremely cool Konfabulator.
The works of the clock consist of a short JavaScript program (Konfabulator provides a JavaScript engine to animate your creations). You can create a face for the clock using any graphics program – this was my first effort in Adobe Illustrator.
