It sounds like you don't care about this class.   Given that while also
considering it'd be cheating for anybody to give you something all written
out, I'll just say put a sphere at the origin for the spindle around which
the hands rotate.  Then, use a disk for the face.  Define a sphere at say
the 12 o'clock position and use a #while loop top copy it around for the
different number locations.   Do the same for the seconds positions, but
maybe with smaller spheres/dots.  Declare 3 different sizes of cylinders or
cones or whatever for the hours minutes & seconds and then...

#declare Duration = 1/60; // expressed in hours so 1/60 = 1 min

#object{ Hour_Hand   rotate clock*360*1    *Duration }
#object{ Minute_Hand rotate clock*360*60   *Duration }
#object{ Second_Hand rotate clock*360*60*60*Duration }

If you want to start at something other than 12:00, you can add a starting
angle to each of the rotations.

Hope this helps,
Charles

PS, a digital clock would be almost as easy but would use float and string
functions.
