There is a very elegant solution, actually, and it's one of the neat little hidden features of Microsoft Windows Vista that - dare I say it? - I really like!

Well, you can't have multiple "analog" clocks with this little trick, but you can most definitely have multiple digital displays, and even better, they're neatly hidden until you need to check on the times and make sure you're not calling too early or late.

I don't have any selected here, but it's a matter of just a few seconds to configure it to have two clocks included, one for New York (Eastern Time) and one for London, England. Now it looks like this:

Click on "OK" and hover your cursor over the current time display on the taskbar:

And don't forget to click on the time too, to see those three analog clocks you were hoping to find!
